Neutrinos play a crucial role in the collapse and explosion of massive stars, governing the infall dynamics of the stellar core, triggering and fueling the explosion and driving the cooling and deleptonization of the newly formed neutron star. Due to
their role neutrinos carry information from the heart of the explosion and, due to their weakly interacting nature, offer the only direct probe of the dynamics and thermodynamics at the center of a supernova. In this paper, we review the present status of modelling the neutrino physics and signal formation in collapsing and exploding stars. We assess the capability of current and planned large underground neutrino detectors to yield faithful information of the time and flavor dependent neutrino signal from a future Galactic supernova. We show how the observable neutrino burst would provide a benchmark for fundamental supernova physics with unprecedented richness of detail. Exploiting the treasure of the measured neutrino events requires a careful discrimination of source-generated properties from signal features that originate on the way to the detector. As for the latter, we discuss self-induced flavor
We give a very brief overview of collective effects in neutrino oscillations in core collapse supernovae where refractive effects of neutrinos on themselves can considerably modify flavor oscillations, with possible repercussions for future supernova
neutrino detection. We discuss synchronized and bipolar oscillations, the role of energy and angular neutrino modes, as well as three-flavor effects. We close with a short summary and some open questions.
Recently, it has been demonstrated that neutrinos in a supernova oscillate collectively. This process occurs much deeper than the conventional matter-induced MSW effect and hence may have an impact on nucleosynthesis. In this paper we explore the eff
ects of collective neutrino oscillations on the r-process, using representative late-time neutrino spectra and outflow models. We find that accurate modeling of the collective oscillations is essential for this analysis. As an illustration, the often-used single-angle approximation makes grossly inaccurate predictions for the yields in our setup. With the proper multiangle treatment, the effect of the oscillations is found to be less dramatic, but still significant. Since the oscillation patterns are sensitive to the details of the emitted fluxes and the sign of the neutrino mass hierarchy, so are the r-process yields. The magnitude of the effect also depends sensitively on the astrophysical conditions - in particular on the interplay between the time when nuclei begin to exist in significant numbers and the time when the collective oscillation begins. A more definitive understanding of the astrophysical conditions, and accurate modeling of the collective oscillations for those conditions, is necessary.
We study collective oscillations of Majorana neutrinos in some of the most extreme astrophysical sites such as neutron star merger remnants and magneto-rotational core-collapse supernovae which include dense neutrino media in the presence of strong m
agnetic fields. We show that neutrinos can reach flavor equilibrium if neutrino transition magnetic moment $mu_ u$ is strong enough, namely when $mu_ u/mu_{rm{B}} gtrsim 10^{-14}-10^{-15}$ with $mu_{rm{B}}$ being the Bohr magneton. This sort of flavor equilibrium, which is not necessarily flavor equipartition, can occur on (short) scales determined by the strength of the magnetic term. Our findings can have interesting implications for the physics of such violent astrophysical environments.
We study the effects of collective neutrino oscillations on $ u p$ process nucleosynthesis in proton-rich neutrino-driven winds by including both the multi-angle $3times3$ flavor mixing and the nucleosynthesis network calculation. The number flux of
energetic electron antineutrinos is raised by collective neutrino oscillations in a $1$D supernova model for $40 M_{odot}$ progenitor. When the gas temperature decreases down to $sim2-3times10^{9}$ K, the increased flux of electron antineutrinos promotes $ u p$ process more actively, resulting in the enhancement of $p$-nuclei. In the early phase of neutrino-driven wind, blowing at $0.6$ s after core bounce, oscillation effects are prominent in inverted mass hierarchy and $p$-nuclei are synthesized up to $^{106}mathrm{Cd}$ and $^{108}mathrm{Cd}$. On the other hand, in the later wind trajectory at $1.1$ s after core bounce, abundances of $p$-nuclei are increased remarkably by $sim10-10^{4}$ times in normal mass hierarchy and even reaching heavier $p$-nuclei such as $^{124}mathrm{Xe}$, $^{126}mathrm{Xe}$ and $^{130}mathrm{Ba}$. The averaged overproduction factor of $p$-nuclei is dominated by the later wind trajectories. Our results demonstrate that collective neutrino oscillations can strongly influence $ u p$ process, which indicates that they should be included in the network calculations in order to obtain precise abundances of $p$-nuclei. The conclusions of this paper depend on the difference of initial neutrino parameters between electron and non-electron antineutrino flavors which is large in our case. Further systematic studies on input neutrino physics and wind trajectories are necessary to draw a robust conclusion. However, this finding would help understand the origin of solar-system isotopic abundances of $p$-nuclei such as $^{92,94}mathrm{Mo}$ and $^{96,98}mathrm{Ru}$.
