Supernova Bounds on Neutrino Properties: a mini-review
نویسنده
چکیده
Neutrino flavor conversion could cause some significant influence on supernova physics . In this talk we discuss the effect of such conversion induced by nonstandard properties of neutrinos, not just by mass and mixing, on supernova physics. In particular, we consider the effect on neutrino shock-reheating, supernova heavy elements nucleosynthesis as well as ν̄e signal, and show that in some case rather stringent limits on model parameters can be obtained.

Supernova constraints on neutrino mass and mixing
In this article I review the constraints on neutrino mass and mixing coming from type-II supernovae. The bounds obtained on these parameters from shock reheating, r-process nucleosynthesis and from SN1987A are discussed. Given the current constraints on neutrino mass and mixing the effect of oscillations of neutrinos from a nearby supernova explosion in future detectors will also be discussed.
متن کاملThe diffuse supernova neutrino flux
I review the status and perspectives of the research on the diffuse flux of (core collapse) supernova neutrinos (DSNνF). In absence of a positive signal, several upper bounds exist in different detection channels. Of these, the strongest is the limit from SuperKamiokande (SK) of 1.2 electron antineutrinos cms at 90% confidence level above 19.3 MeV of neutrino energy. The predictions of the DSNν...
متن کاملNeutrino mixing constraints and supernova nucleosynthesis.
We reexamine the constraints on mixing between electron and muon or tau neutrinos from shock-reheating and r-process nucleosynthesis in supernovae. To this end neutrino flavor evolution is described by nonlinear equations following from a quantum kinetic approach. This takes into account neutrino forward scattering off the neutrino background itself. In contrast to other claims in the literatur...
متن کاملCore-collapse supernova neutrinos and neutrino properties
Core-collapse supernovae are powerful neutrino sources. The observation of a future (extra-)galactic supernova explosion or of the relic supernova neutrinos might provide important information on the supernova dynamics, on the supernova formation rate and on neutrino properties. One might learn more about unknown neutrino properties either from indirect effects in the supernova (e.g. on the exp...
متن کاملNew bounds on the neutrino magnetic moment from the plasma induced neutrino chirality flip in a supernova
The neutrino chirality-flip process under the conditions of the supernova core is investigated in detail with the plasma polarization effects in the photon propagator taken into account, in a more consistent way than in earlier publications. It is shown in part that the contribution of the proton fraction of plasma is essential. New upper bounds on the neutrino magnetic moment are obtained: μν ...
