Abstract:
In the effective relativistic quantum field theories, the energy region in which special relativity holds can be sandwiched from both the high-and low-energy sides by domains where special relativity is violated. An example is provided by 3He-A, where the relativistic quantum field theory emerges as the effective theory. The reentrant violation of special relativity in the ultralow-energy corner is accompanied by the redistribution of the momentum-space topological charges among the fermionic flavors. At this ultralow energy, an exotic massless fermion with topological charge N 3=2 arises whose energy spectrum mixes classical and relativistic behaviors. This effect can lead to neutrino oscillations, if neutrino flavors are still massless on this energy scale.
