A.D. Dolgov, V.A. Novikov, M.I. Vysotsky
TL;DR
This paper discusses methods to identify antimatter stars by analyzing photon polarization and neutrino emissions during supernova events, providing potential observational signatures for antimatter in the universe.
Contribution
It introduces polarization and neutrino detection techniques as new observational tools for distinguishing antimatter stars from matter stars.
Findings
Photon polarization can indicate antimatter star presence.
Neutrino emissions at supernova onset serve as antimatter signatures.
Proposes observational strategies for antimatter star detection.
Abstract
Polarization of photons emitted in weak decays occuring at distant star allows to determine whether this star is made from antimatter. Even more promissing is the observation of neutrinos (antineutrinos) produced at neutronization (antineutronization) reactions at the beginning of SN () explosion.
