Description
Supernova neutrinos are weakly interacting particles which are produced when a massive star collapses to form a compact object losing 99% of the gravitational binding energy of the remnant in the form of neutrinos with energies a few tens of Mev in a few tens of seconds. They were observed for 1987A core-collapse supernova (SN1987A) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) , 50 kpc away from Earth. The detection capabilities have increased by orders of magnitude since 1987 and the next observation of core-collapse will provide a great deal of information for both physics and astrophysics. SNOwGLoBES (SuperNova Observatories with GLoBES), is a software whose goal is to record much more events than before to analyze the supernova neutrinos and to study the neutrino oscillations in more depth , for computing interaction rates and distributions of observed quantities for supernova burst neutrinos in common detector materials. A study is carried out to determine flux parameters by parameter fit algorithm, using different cross-section models, more accurately in SNOwGLoBES.
