Significance of neutrino cross-sections for astrophysics
arXiv:0909.0226 · doi:10.1063/1.3274141
Abstract
The heavens are full of neutrinos, but so far we have observed a small subset of those. Performing such observations and analyzing the data from them require a thorough understanding of neutrino interactions. In this short review, the current theoretical status of neutrino cross sections are briefly summarized and novel aspects of neutrino interactions that arise in cosmic sites are discussed.
