Large lepton mixing and supernova 1987A
We reconsider the impact of ν̄e ↔ ν̄μ,τ neutrino oscillations on the observed ν̄e signal of supernova SN 1987A. Performing a maximum-likelihood analysis using as fit parameters the released binding energy Eb and the average neutrino energy 〈Eν̄e〉, we find as previous analyses that ν̄e ↔ ν̄μ,τ oscillations with large mixing angles have lower best-fit values for 〈Eν̄e〉 than small-mixing angle (SMA) osci...
متن کاملSupernova 1987A
First, I summarize the main points that we have learned about the interior of SN1987A. Then, I describe in greater detail the rapidly developing impact of SN1987A with its inner circumstellar ring.
متن کاملSupernova 1987A Neutrino Signal: Statistical Power of a Small Sample
Of the 20 neutrino events associated with SN1987A, all eight from IMB and four from Kamiokande II have measured energies lying at or above 20 MeV. Unlike the eight lower-energy events, this sample shows strong forward peaking, so that the a priori probability of obtaining a distribution as forward as this from an isotropic mechanism is less than one part in a million. Standard theory expects a ...
متن کاملThe Physics of Supernova 1987A
We describe multiwavelength observations of the evolving spectra and images of Supernova (SN) 1987A, and we review the principles used to infer the physical conditions in the explosion debris. We interpret the early optical and gammaray light curves with a simple diffusion model. We review the evidence for dust formation in the debris. We show X-ray and optical observations that enable us to ch...
متن کاملThe Remnant of Supernova 1987A
Although it has faded by a factor of ∼107, SN 1987A is still bright enough to be observed in almost every band of the electromagnetic spectrum. Today, the bolometric luminosity of the debris is dominated by a far-infrared (∼200 μm) continuum from ∼0.5 M of dust grains in the interior debris. The dust is heated by UV, optical, and near-infrared (NIR) emission resulting from radioactive energy de...
