Uncertainty Quantification for Neutrino Opacities in Core-Collapse Supernovae and Neutron Star Mergers

Zidu Lin, Andrew W. Steiner, Jerome Margueron

We perform an extensive study of the correlations between the neutrino-nucleon inverse mean free paths (IMFPs) and the underlying equation of states (EoSs). Strong interaction unce…

Detectability of neutrino-signal fluctuations induced by the hadron-quark phase transition in failing core-collapse supernovae

Zidu Lin, Shuai Zha, Evan P. O'Connor +1

We introduce a systematic and quantitative methodology for establishing the presence of neutrino oscillatory signals due to the hadron-quark phase transition (PT) in failing core-c…

Memory-triggered supernova neutrino detection

Mainak Mukhopadhyay, Zidu Lin, Cecilia Lunardini

We demonstrate that observations of the gravitational memory from core collapse supernovae at future Deci-Hz interferometers enable time-triggered searches of supernova neutrinos a…

Fast neutrino cooling of nuclear pasta in neutron stars: molecular dynamics simulations

Zidu Lin, Matthew E. Caplan, Charles J. Horowitz +1

The direct URCA process of rapid neutrino emission can occur in nonuniform nuclear pasta phases that are expected in the inner crust of neutron stars. Here, the periodic potential…

Investigating the dependence of collective dynamics on n/p asymmetry for light nuclei

R. T. deSouza, Varinderjit Singh, S. Hudan +2

The dynamics present in the fusion of neutron-rich nuclei is explored through the comparison of experimental cross-sections at above-barrier energies with measurements of the inter…

Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations including Neutrino Interactions from the Virial EOS

Evan O'Connor, C. J. Horowitz, Zidu Lin +1

Core-collapse supernova explosions are driven by a central engine that converts a small fraction of the gravitational binding energy released during core collapse to outgoing kinet…

Deep crustal heating by neutrinos from the surface of accreting neutron stars

F. J. Fattoyev, Edward F. Brown, Andrew Cumming +4

We present a new mechanism for deep crustal heating in accreting neutron stars. Charged pions () are produced in nuclear collisions on the neutron star surface during active a…

Nuclear pasta and supernova neutrinos at late times

C. J. Horowitz, D. K. Berry, M. E. Caplan +5

Nuclear pasta, with nucleons arranged into tubes, sheets, or other complex shapes, is expected in core collapse supernovae (SNe) at just below nuclear density. We calculate the add…
