Gary Ng Research review 2013 (Astrophysical neutrinos)
Supernova_1987A.pdf
: Supernova_1987A.pdf
Questions:
Why study v & what is special about them?
To 'map' the sky / universe with methods other than visible light range.
Tiny mass, very rarely interact, travels through medium.
How & when did the concept of v come about?
What were the initial theories? Are they still valid?
Is there only 1 type of v?
Solar v, Atmospheric v, SN v
What are the similarities and/or differences between each type of v?
Do they travel at different velocities?
Do they have the same energies?
Were they all detected initially?
What equipment was used?
What detection medium used?
No.
Because they changed types, due to v oscillation.
Neutrino Oscillaion
Have all types of v been detected now? How?
Are all types of v detected together every time? Why not?
Why are we studying SN v?
Why
SN1978A
?
It was close enough to be observed
What is speical about SN v?
Are they the same as when they were just produced, inside the SN?
How do we detect SN v?
With the experiments, do we just detect SN v?
How do we distinguish which v are from what source?
What is special / different about each detection method?
Are there any differences in detection methods x years ago?
What are the results for the differnt methods?
Does the results correspond to theory / prediction?
Can we tell the direction of the SN v? If so, how?
Can we tell the origin (location) of the SN v? If so, how?
Can we tell the origin (time) of the SN v? If so, how?
Can we tell the original type of the SN v? If so, how?
... (more questions) ...
What will future SN v detection lead to?
