Temperature ratio of an early-decoupled neutrino
ID: temperature-ratio-of-an-early-decoupled-neutrino
A relativistic species decoupling before ordinary neutrino decoupling cools as . Cosmological entropy conservation in the remaining bath gives , where counts that bath just after the early species has left it. Subsequent electron-positron annihilation in cosmology gives . For the ideal high-temperature relativistic entropy content of the Standard Model, the resulting ratio is about .
