摘要:

中微子快速味道不稳定性(FFI)能在纳秒时间尺度和厘米空间尺度上改变中微子味道。它预计在核坍缩超新星和中子星合并中普遍存在,可能改变我们观测到的中微子信号、物质如何从这些爆炸中被抛出,以及抛射物中形成并丰富宇宙的重元素类型。近期人们对理解FFI在超新星和合并中的作用有极大兴趣,但短时空尺度和强非线性阻碍了FFI被一致地纳入这些模型。我们从量子动力学方程出发回顾FFI的理论本质,探讨不稳定性在中子星合并和超新星中存在的位置,以及在简化模拟中饱和后不稳定性的行为。我们回顾了在全分布不可得的基于矩的计算中测试不稳定性的方法,并描述了直接模拟不稳定性的数值方法。最后,我们概述了通向现实自洽模型的路径,这将允许更完整地理解FFI在超新星和合并中的影响。

英文摘要:

The neutrino fast flavor instability (FFI) can change neutrino flavor on time scales of nanoseconds and length scales of centimeters. It is expected to be ubiquitous in core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers, potentially modifying the neutrino signal we see, how matter is ejected from these explosions, and the types of heavy elements that form in the ejecta and enrich the universe. There has been a great deal of recent interest in understanding the role the FFI plays in supernovae and mergers, but the short length and time scales and the strong nonlinearity have prevented the FFI from being included consistently in these models. We review the theoretical nature of the FFI starting with the quantum kinetic equations, where the instability exists in neutron star mergers and supernovae, and how the instability behaves after saturation in simplified simulations. We review the proposed methods to test for instability in moment-based calculations where the full distribution is not available and describe the numerical methods used to simulate the instability directly. Finally, we close by outlining the trajectory toward realistic, self-consistent models that will allow a more complete understanding of the impact of the FFI in supernovae and mergers.
