Instability in the dense supernova neutrino gas with flavor-dependent angular distributions.
The usual description of self-induced flavor conversions for neutrinos (ν's) in supernovae is based on the simplified assumption that all the ν's of the different species are emitted "half-isotropically" by a common neutrinosphere, in analogy to a blackbody emission. However, realistic supernova simulations show that ν angular distributions at decoupling are far from being half-isotropic and, a...
متن کاملSupernova Neutrinos: Flavor-dependent Fluxes and Spectra
Transporting νμ and ντ in a supernova (SN) core involves several processes that have been neglected in traditional simulations. Based on a Monte Carlo study we find that the flavor-dependent spectral differences are much smaller than is often stated in the literature. A full-scale SN simulation using a Boltzmann solver and including all relevant neutrino reactions confirms these results. The fl...
متن کاملPhysics of supernova neutrinos: flavor conversion effects
I review the effects of flavor conversion of neutrinos from stellar collapse due to masses and mixing, and discuss the motivations for their study. I consider in detail the sensitivity of certain observables (characteristics of the energy spectra of νe and ν̄e events) to the 13-mixing (sin 2 θ13) and to the type of mass hierarchy/ordering (sign[∆m213]). These observables are: the ratio of averag...
متن کاملDetermining Spin-Flavor Dependent Distributions
Many of the present and planned polarization experiments are focusing on determination of the polarized glue. There is a comparable set of spin experiments which can help to extract information on the separate flavor-dependent polarized distributions. This talk will discuss possible sets of experiments, some of which are planned at BNL, CERN, DESY and JHF, which can be used to determine these d...
متن کاملEmission angle distribution and flavor transformation of supernova neutrinos
Using moment equations we analyze collective flavor transformation of supernova neutrinos. We study the convergence of moment equations and find that numerical results using a few moment converge quite fast. We study effects of emission angle distribution of neutrinos on neutrino sphere. We study scaling law of the amplitude of neutrino self-interaction Hamiltonian and find that it depends on m...
