Neutrino flavor-wave transport: Numerical tests and theoretical challenges

Anson Kost, Lucas Johns, Huaiyu Duan

Neutrino quantum kinetics is computationally intractable in the neutrino-dense arenas of core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers. Flavor-wave (or flavomon) transport is a…

Dispersion Relations of Collective Flavor Excitations in Dense Neutrino Media

Anson Kost, Huaiyu Duan

We apply the Landau damping theory to collective flavor excitations in dense neutrino media. We demonstrate explicitly that the (meta)stable modes of the collective flavor excitati…

Once-in-a-lifetime encounter models for neutrino media II: Quasi-steady states and miscidynamic flavor evolution

Anson Kost, Lucas Johns, Huaiyu Duan

We extended the once-in-a-lifetime encounter (OILE) model to stochastic interactions among neutrinos. As in the original OILE model, the new model reproduces the mean-field behavio…

Local-equilibrium theory of neutrino oscillations

Lucas Johns, Anson Kost

Miscidynamics describes coarse-grained neutrino transport under the assumption that flavor mixing is in local equilibrium. Here we introduce the concept of turbulent flavor-wave vi…

Once-in-a-lifetime encounter models for neutrino media: From coherent oscillations to flavor equilibration

Anson Kost, Lucas Johns, Huaiyu Duan

Collective neutrino oscillations are typically studied using the lowest-order quantum kinetic equation, also known as the mean-field approximation. However, some recent quantum man…
