Zusammenfassung: | We investigate the late-time neutrino emission powered by fallback mass
accretion onto proto-neutron star (PNS), using neutrino radiation-hydrodynamic
simulations with full Boltzmann neutrino transport. We follow the time
evolution of accretion flow onto PNS until the system reaches a steady state. A
standing shock wave is commonly formed in the accretion flow, whereas the shock
radius varies depending on mass accretion rate and PNS mass. A sharp increase
in temperature emerges in the vicinity of PNS ($\sim 10$ km), which
characterizes neutrino emission. Both neutrino luminosity and average energy
become higher with increasing mass accretion rate and PNS mass. The mean energy
of emitted neutrinos is in the range of
$10\lesssim\epsilon\lesssim20\,\mathrm{MeV}$, which is higher than that
estimated from PNS cooling models ($\lesssim10\,\mathrm{MeV}$). Assuming a
distance to core-collapse supernova of $10\,\mathrm{kpc}$, we quantify neutrino
event rates for Super-Kamiokande (Super-K) and DUNE. The estimated detection
rates are well above the background, and their energy-dependent features are
qualitatively different from those expected from PNS cooling models. Another
notable feature is that the neutrino emission is strongly flavor dependent,
exhibiting that the neutrino event rate hinges on the neutrino oscillation
model. We estimate them in the case with adiabatic Mikheev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein
model, and show that the normal- and inverted mass hierarchy offer the large
number of neutrino detection in Super-K and DUNE, respectively. Hence the
simultaneous observation with Super-K and DUNE of the fallback neutrinos will
provide a strong constraint on neutrino mass hierarchy. |
