Using time-of-flight delays of the three neutrino mass eigenstates across sharp supernova features, a galactic supernova at 10 kpc could individually constrain or measure neutrino masses at JUNO, with precision that depends strongly on the assumed mass scale.

abstract
The current short baseline reactor experiments, Daya Bay and RENO (Double Chooz) have measured (or are capable of measuring) an effective $\Delta m^2$ associated with the atmospheric oscillation scale of 0.5 km/MeV in electron anti-neutrino disappearance. In this paper, I compare and contrast the different definitions of such an effective $\Delta m^2$ and argue that the simple, L/E independent, definition given by $\Delta m^2_{ee} \equiv \cos^2 \theta_{12} \Delta m^2_{31}+ \sin^2 \theta_{12} \Delta m^2_{32}$, i.e. "the $\nu_e$ weighted average of $\Delta m^2_{31}$ and $\Delta m^2_{32}$," is superior to all other definitions and is useful for both short baseline experiments mentioned above and for the future medium baseline experiments JUNO and RENO 50.

Individual Neutrino Masses From a Supernova
Using time-of-flight delays of the three neutrino mass eigenstates across sharp supernova features, a galactic supernova at 10 kpc could individually constrain or measure neutrino masses at JUNO, with precision that depends strongly on the assumed mass scale.
