Neutrinos from Protoneutron Stars
arXiv:astro-ph/9802310
Abstract
We study the diffusive transport of neutrinos in a newly born neutron star to explore its sensitivity to dense matter properties. Energy and lepton number which are trapped during the catastrophic implosion diffuse out on the time scale of a few tens of seconds. Results for different dense matter models are presented.
