Bimodal Coherence in Dense Self-Interacting Neutrino Gases
read the original abstract
Analytical solutions are obtained to the nonlinear equations describing neutrino oscillations when explicit neutrino-antineutrino asymmetries are present. Such a system occurs in the early Universe if neutrinos have a non-zero chemical potential. Solutions to the equations lead to a new type of coherent behavior governed by two modes. These bimodal solutions provide new insights into dense neutrino gases and into neutrino oscillations in the early Universe, thereby allowing one to surmise the flavor behavior of neutrinos with a non-zero chemical potential.

Neutrino-antineutrino superfluidity
Pairing instabilities in neutrino plasmas arise only with occupation number discontinuities and are spurious artifacts of energy discretization that disappear in the continuum.

Neutrino mass ordering from the next Galactic supernova at DUNE, HK, and JUNO
Neutronization burst and accretion-phase rise-time observables from a 10 kpc core-collapse supernova enable DUNE, HK and JUNO to discriminate neutrino mass ordering at 3-6 sigma using multiple progenitor simulations.
