Abstract

Numerical modeling of neutrino quantum kinetics is a new frontier in the study of core-collapse supernova (CCSN) and binary neutron star merger (BNSM). The noticeable feature in the quantum kinetics is neutrino flavor conversion driven by neutrino self-interactions. Although there remain many unresolved issues in their non-linear properties of flavor conversions, rapid progress has been made in the last few years. In this article, we introduce the current status for the study of collective neutrino oscillations, which are representative characteristics in self-induced flavor conversions, and then we show our recent results: global quantum kinetic simulations in CCSN and BNSM environments.
