Neutrinos: from the r-process to the diffuse supernova neutrino background
Volpe Maria Cristina
Neutrinos from dense environments are connected to the longstanding open questions of how massive stars explode and what are the sites where -process elements are made. Flavor e…
Neutrino decoupling including flavour oscillations and primordial nucleosynthesis
Julien Froustey, Cyril Pitrou, Maria Cristina Volpe
We revisit the decoupling of neutrinos in the early universe with flavour oscillations. We rederive the quantum kinetic equations which determine the neutrino evolution based on a…
Fast Neutrino Flavor Conversion Modes in Multidimensional Core-collapse Supernova Models: the Role of the Asymmetric Neutrino Distributions
Sajad Abbar, Huaiyu Duan, Kohsuke Sumiyoshi +2
A dense neutrino gas, such as the one anticipated in the supernova environment, can experience fast neutrino flavor conversions on scales much shorter than those expected in vacuum…
Neutrino decoherence in presence of strong gravitational fields
Amélie Chatelain, Maria Cristina Volpe
We explore the impact of strong gravitational fields on neutrino decoherence. To this aim, we employ the density matrix formalism to describe the propagation of neutrino wave packe…
On the occurrence of fast neutrino flavor conversions in multidimensional supernova models
Sajad Abbar, Huaiyu Duan, Kohsuke Sumiyoshi +2
The dense neutrino medium in a core-collapse supernova or a neutron-star merger event can experience fast flavor conversions on time/distance scales that are much smaller than thos…
On Fast Neutrino Flavor Conversion Modes in the Nonlinear Regime
Sajad Abbar, Maria Cristina Volpe
A dense neutrino medium could experience self-induced flavor conversions on relatively small scales in the presence of the so-called fast flavor conversion modes. Owing to the fact…
