Effects of non - factorizable metric on neutrino oscillation inside supernova

چکیده

In this paper we construct the interaction potential between the dense supernova core and neutrinos due to the exchange of light radions in the Randall-Sundrum scenario. We then show that the radion exchange potential affects the neutrino oscillation phenomenology inside the supernova significantly if the radion mass is less than around 1 GeV. In order that the Bethe-Wilson mechanism for heating the envelope and r-process neucleosynthesis be operative, the radion mass must be greater than 1 GeV. Bounds on the radion mass of the same order of magnitude can also be derived from TASSO and CLEO data on B decays.

Supernova neutrino oscillations: what do we understand?

We summarize our current understanding of the neutrino flavor conversions inside a core collapse supernova, clarifying the important role played by the “collective effects” in determining flavor conversion probabilities. The potentially observable νe and ν̄e spectra may help us identify the neutrino mixing scenario, distinguish between primary flux models, and learn more about the supernova expl...

Neutrino Interactions with Nuclei and Dark Matter

Even though the combined laboratory, astrophysical and cosmological evidence implies that neutrinos have masses, neutrinos provide only a small cosmic dark matter component. The study of solar neutrinos provides important information on nuclear processes inside the Sun as well as on matter densities. Moreover, supernova neutrinos provide sensitive probes for studying supernova explosions, neutr...

Oscillation effects on supernova neutrino rates and spectra and detection of the shock breakout in a liquid Argon TPC

A liquid Argon TPC (ICARUS-like) has the ability to detect clean neutrino bursts from type-II supernova collapses. In a previous paper we have considered three detection channels: elastic scattering on electrons from all neutrino species, νe charged current absorption on Ar with production of excited K and ν̄e charged current absorption on Ar with production of excited Cl. In this paper, we stud...

Effects of neutrino oscillation on supernova neutrino: inverted mass hierarchy

We study the effects of neutrino oscillation on supernova neutrino in the case of the inverted mass hierarchy (m3 ≪ m1 < m2) as well as the normal mass hierarchy (m1 < m2 ≪ m3). Numerical analysis using a realistic supernova and presupernova model allows us to discuss quantitatively a possibility to probe neutrino oscillation parameters. We show that information about the mass hierarchy can be ...

Supernova neutrinos : Earth matter effects and neutrino mass spectrum

We perform a detailed study of the Earth matter effects on supernova neutrinos. The dependences of these effects on the properties of the original neutrino fluxes, on the trajectory of the neutrinos inside the Earth and on the oscillation parameters are described. We show that, for a large fraction (∼ 60%) of the possible arrival times of the signal, the neutrino flux crosses a substantial amou...
