Quantum decoherence of neutrino mass states
Konstantin Stankevich, Alexander Studenikin
TL;DR
This paper investigates how quantum decoherence affects neutrino oscillations in supernovae, showing that decoherence suppresses collective oscillations through numerical simulations.
Contribution
It provides the first detailed numerical analysis of the interplay between quantum decoherence and collective neutrino oscillations in supernova environments.
Findings
Quantum decoherence suppresses bipolar collective neutrino oscillations.
Numerical simulations demonstrate the impact of decoherence on neutrino flavor evolution.
Decoherence effects could influence supernova neutrino signals.
Abstract
We study the interplay of the neutrino quantum decoherence and bipolar collective neutrino oscillations. Using the numerical simulation of the neutrino evolution in a supernova environment we showthe suppression of the bipolar collective neutrino oscillations by the quantum decoherence of the neutrino mass states.
