Overdamping of Neutron-Mirror-Neutron Transitions in Neutron Stars
Abstract
The neutron to mirror neutron transitions in neutron stars would possibly result in significant effects. In this work we show that collisional decoherence entails exponential relaxation in lieu of oscillations. Decoherence is a great many orders of magnitude faster than the expected oscillations. The admixture of mirror neutrons at all times remains very small with respect to ordinary neutrons component.
