A Strong Test of Electroweak Theory Using Pulsating DB White Dwarf Stars as Plasmon Neutrino Detectors
We demonstrate that plasmon neutrinos are the dominant form of energy loss in model white dwarf stars down to Teff ~ 25,000 K, depending on the stellar mass. The lower end of this range overlaps the observed temperatures for the V777 Her star (DBV) instability strip. The evolution of white …
