Neutrino Production via $e^-e^+$ Collision at $Z$-boson Peak

Abstract

The production of the three normal neutrinos via $e^-e+$ collision at $Z$-boson peak (neutrino production in a Z-factory) is investigated thoroughly. The differences of $\nu_e$-pair production from $\nu_\mu$-pair and $\nu_\tau$-pair production are presented in various aspects. Namely the total cross sections, relevant differential cross sections and the forward-backward asymmetry etc for these neutrinos are presented in terms of figures as well as numerical tables. The restriction on the room for the mixing of the three species of light neutrinos with possible externals (heavy neutral leptons and/or stereos) from refined measurements of the invisible width of $Z$-boson is discussed.
