Theoretical developments in supernova neutrino physics : mass corrections and pairing correlators

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We highlight the progress in our understanding of how neutrinos change their flavor in astrophysical environments, in particular effects from the neutrino self-interaction. We emphasize extended descriptions of neutrino propagation in massive stars that are beyond the current one based on the mean-field approximation. The extended equations include, in particular, corrections from (anti)neutrino-(anti)neutrino pairing correlations and from the neutrino mass. We underline open issues and challenges.
