Resonant spin-flavor conversion of supernova neutrinos: Dependence on presupernova models and future prospects
We study the resonant spin-flavor (RSF) conversion of supernova neutrinos, which is induced by the interaction between the nonzero neutrino magnetic moment and the supernova magnetic fields, and its dependence on presupernova models. As the presupernova models, we adopt the latest ones by Woosley, Heger, and Weaver, and, further, models with both solar and zero metallicity are investigated. Sin...
متن کاملResonant spin-flavor conversion of supernova neutrinos and deformation of the electron antineutrino spectrum.
The neutrino spin-flavor conversion of ν̄e ↔ νμ which is induced by the interaction of the neutrino magnetic moment and magnetic fields in the collapse-driven supernova is investigated in detail. We calculate the conversion probability by using the latest precollapse models of Woosley and Weaver (1995), and also those of Nomono and Hashimoto (1988), changing the stellar mass and metallicity in o...
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 کاملResonant Neutrino Spin-Flavor Precession and Supernova Nucleosynthesis and Dynamics
We discuss the effects of resonant spin-flavor precession (RSFP) of Majorana neutrinos on heavy element nucleosynthesis in neutrino-heated supernova ejecta and the dynamics of supernovae. In assessing the effects of RSFP, we explicitly include matter-enhanced (MSW) resonant neutrino flavor conversion effects where appropriate. We point out that for plausible ranges of neutrino magnetic moments ...
متن کاملResonant Neutrino Spin–flavor Precession and Supernova Shock Revival
A new mechanism of supernova shock revival is proposed, which involves resonant spin–flavor precession of neutrinos with a transition magnetic moment in the magnetic field of the supernova. The mechanism can be operative in supernovae for transition magnetic moments as small as 10μB provided the neutrino mass squared difference is in the range ∆m2 ∼ (3 eV)2 − (600 eV)2. It is shown that this me...
