Supernova Neutrino Spectra and Applications to Flavor Oscillations
Mathias Th. Keil
We study the flavor-dependent neutrino spectra formation in the core of a supernova (SN) by means of Monte Carlo simulations. A high-statistics neutrino signal from a galactic SN m…
Identifying Earth matter effects on supernova neutrinos at a single detector
Amol S. Dighe, Mathias Th. Keil, Georg G. Raffelt
The neutrino oscillations in Earth matter introduce modulations in the supernova neutrino spectra. These modulations can be exploited to identify the presence of Earth effects on t…
Supernova neutrinos: Flavor-dependent fluxes and spectra
G. G. Raffelt, M. Th. Keil, R. Buras +2
Transporting nu_mu and nu_tau in a supernova (SN) core involves several processes that have been neglected in traditional simulations. Based on a Monte Carlo study we find that the…
Detecting the Neutrino Mass Hierarchy with a Supernova at IceCube
A. S. Dighe, M. T. Keil, G. G. Raffelt
IceCube, a future km^3 antarctic ice Cherenkov neutrino telescope, is highly sensitive to a galactic supernova (SN) neutrino burst. The Cherenkov light corresponding to the total e…
Monte Carlo Study of Supernova Neutrino Spectra Formation
Mathias Th. Keil, Georg G. Raffelt, Hans-Thomas Janka
The neutrino flux and spectra formation in a supernova core is studied by using a Monte Carlo code. The dominant opacity contribution for nu_mu and nu_tau is elastic scattering on…
Electron Neutrino Pair Annihilation: A New Source for Muon and Tau Neutrinos in Supernovae
Robert Buras, Hans-Thomas Janka, Mathias Th. Keil +2
We show that in a supernova core the annihilation process nu_e nu_e-bar -> nu_{mu,tau} nu_{mu,tau}-bar is always more important than the traditional reaction e^+ e^- -> nu_{mu,tau}…
