Description

The SuperNova Early Warning System (SNEWS) connects different neutrino experiments to quickly alert the astronomy community once the next galactic supernova happens. Since 2019, it has been completely redesigned for the new era of multimessenger astronomy.
This talk will give an overview over SNEWS’ fully Python-based toolchain, covering communication of experiments with SNEWS, coincidence detection and combined analyses like supernova triangulation. I will also introduce physics simulation software that SNEWS is developing for use by the broader supernova neutrino community.
