Long range neutrino forces in the cosmic relic neutrino background

Neutrinos mediate long range forces among macroscopic bodies in a vacuum. When the bodies are placed in the neutrino cosmic background, these forces are modified. Indeed, at distances long compared to the scale T -1, the relic neutrinos completely screen off the two-neutrino exchange force, whereas for small distances the interaction remains unaffected. ©2000 The American Physical Society.
