Probing the neutrino mass hierarchy with the rise time of a supernova burst
Pasquale Dario Serpico, Sovan Chakraborty, Tobias Fischer +3
The rise time of a Galactic supernova (SN) bar-nue lightcurve, observable at a high-statistics experiment such as the IceCube Cherenkov detector, can provide a diagnostic tool for…
Future constraints on neutrino isocurvature perturbations in the curvaton scenario
Eleonora Di Valentino, Massimiliano Lattanzi, Gianpiero Mangano +2
In the curvaton scenario, residual isocurvature perturbations can be imprinted in the cosmic neutrino component after the decay of the curvaton field, implying in turn a non-zero c…
Instability in the dense supernova neutrino gas with flavor-dependent angular distributions
Alessandro Mirizzi, Pasquale D. Serpico
The usual description of self-induced flavor conversions for neutrinos (ν's) in supernovae is based on the simplified assumption that all the ν's of the different species are emitt…
Extragalactic gamma-ray signal from Dark Matter annihilation: a power spectrum based computation
Pasquale D. Serpico, Emiliano Sefusatti, Michael Gustafsson +1
We revisit the computation of the extragalactic gamma-ray signal from cosmological dark matter annihilations. The prediction of this signal is notoriously model dependent, due to d…
Astrophysical models for the origin of the positron "excess"
Pasquale D. Serpico
Over the last three years, several satellite and balloon observatories have suggested intriguing features in the cosmic ray lepton spectra. Most notably, the PAMELA satellite has s…
A robust upper limit on N_eff from BBN, circa 2011
Gianpiero Mangano, Pasquale D. Serpico
We derive here a robust bound on the effective number of neutrinos from constraints on primordial nucleosynthesis yields of deuterium and helium. In particular, our results are bas…
