Description

The neutrino scattering on nuclei in hot and dense matter relevant for core collapse supernovae, neutron star mergers, and proto-neutron stars is considered accounting for magnetization. At finite temperature neutrinos undergo exo- and endo-energetic scattering [1] on nuclei due to the neutral current Gamow-Teller component. The energy transfer cross section in neutrino-nuclon scattering is shown to change from positive to negative values at neutrino energies four times the matter temperature. Effects in neutrino transport and spectra are discussed.
