Comments on Exploring Quantum Statistics for Dirac and Majorana Neutrinos using Spinor-Helicity technique (arXiv:2507.07180 [hep-ph])

Year: 2025

Type: preprint

Abstract: We give our comments on Ref. [1](arXiv:2507.07180) which critiques our idea of exploring quantum statistics to distinguish between Dirac and Majorana neutrinos proposed in some of our earlier works [2-4]. The ad-hoc symmetrization of the Dirac case amplitude square advocated in Eqs. (16) and (35) of [1] has no physical basis and it leads to violation of lepton number in the the standard model for Dirac neutrinos. Therefore, this symmetrization by hand is in principle incorrect.
