Constraining the Self-Interacting Neutrino Interpretation of the Hubble Tension
read the original abstract
Large, non-standard neutrino self-interactions have been shown to resolve the $\sim 4\sigma$ tension in Hubble constant measurements and a milder tension in the amplitude of matter fluctuations. We demonstrate that interactions of the necessary size imply the existence of a force-carrier with a large neutrino coupling ($> 10^{-4}$) and mass in the keV -- 100 MeV range. This mediator is subject to stringent cosmological and laboratory bounds, and we find that nearly all realizations of such a particle are excluded by existing data unless it carries spin 0 and couples almost exclusively to $\tau$-flavored neutrinos. Furthermore, we find that the light neutrinos must be Majorana, and that a UV-complete model requires a non-minimal mechanism to simultaneously generate neutrino masses and appreciable self-interactions.
