Impact of Beyond the Standard Model physics in the detection of the Cosmic Neutrino Background

Abstract We discuss the effect of Beyond the Standard Model charged current interactions on the detection of the Cosmic Neutrino Background by neutrino capture on tritium in a PTOLEMY-like detector. We show that the total capture rate can be substantially modified for Dirac neutrinos if scalar or te...
