Self-consistent approach to neutral-current processes in supernova cores
Self-consistent approach to neutral-current processes in supernova cores
The problem of neutral-current processes (neutrino scattering, pair emission, pair absorption, axion emission, etc.) in a nuclear medium can be separated into an expression representing the phase space of the weakly interacting probe, and a set of dynamic structure functions of the medium. For a nonrelativistic medium we reduce the …
