Abstract:Recent neutrino experiment confirmed that neutrinos have finite masses and that neutrino oscillations occur. Supernova neutrinos also change their flavors propagating in the stellar material surrounding a proto-neutron star and, accordingly, change their spectral energy distributions. The nucleosynthesis of light elements such as 7 Li and 11 B is significantly enhanced through the ν-process in supernova explosions. Yields depend on the energy spectra of the neutrinos emitted from the proto-neutron star, so tha… Show more
