Description

In dense astrophysical environments, the evolution of neutrino flavor is non-linear which can lead to many interesting phenomena. However, this non-linear evolution of neutrino flavor also called the "collective neutrino oscillations" is only beginning to be understood, especially in conjunction with collisions. I will discuss the effect of neutrino back-scattering in the interior of a core-collapse supernova using a simplified model.
