Journal ArticleDOI
Neutrino pair emission from finite-temperature neutron superfluid and the cooling of young neutron stars
TL;DR: In this paper, the neutrons inside neutron stars are almost certainly superfluid below a critical temperature T/subc/approx.10/sup 10/ K. If weak neutral currents exist, in the emission of neutrino-antineutrino pairs, the recombination emissivity can dominate all others.
Journal ArticleDOI
Astrophysical Limitations on Possible Tensor Contributions to Weak Neutral Current Interactions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the astrophysical implications of neutrino dipole moments that permit it to couple directly to photons and deduce that the best limit is probably set by a comparison of degenerate dwarf cooling times with observations of hot white dwarfs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neutrino-neutrino scattering and supernovae.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors calculate the scattering rates of neutrinos in the dense collapsing core of a star undergoing a supernova, and find that all three rates are comparable to that for µ-sub e/-e scattering.

Journal ArticleDOI
Neutrino-pair bremsstrahlung in collisions between neutrons and nuclei in neutron star matter
TL;DR: In this article, the associated emissivity for degenerate (but not superfluid) neutrons and uncorrelated (not crystallized) nuclei was calculated under some conditions compare with that calculated by Festa and Ruderman for electron-nucleus collisions.
