Abstract: (APS)
The behavior of a collection of neutrinos, due to the "magnetic" interactions mediated by the Z boson, becomes nonperturbative in a certain kinematical domain. We give arguments that this is a manifestation of the system being dominated by a set of well-defined coherent states. We investigate the main characteristics and the symmetry properties of the corresponding new phase of dense neutrino matter.
