Neutrino flavour conversion strongly suppresses the diffuse neutrino background from neutrino-dominated accretion flows if the neutrino mass ordering is inverted, leaving a detectable signal only in the normal ordering.

abstract
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) are generally considered to originate from the massive collapsars. It is believed that the central engine of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is a neutrino-dominated accretion flow (NDAF) around a rotating stellar-mass black hole (BH). The neutrino annihilation above the NDAF is a feasible mechanism to power GRB. In this work, we analyse the distributions of the isotropic gamma-ray radiated energy and jet kinetic energy of 48 LGRBs. According to the NDAF and fireball models, we estimate the mean accreted masses of LGRBs in our sample to investigate whether the NDAFs can power LGRBs with the reasonable BH parameters and conversion efficiency of neutrino annihilation. The results indicate that most of the values of the accreted masses are less than $5~M_\odot$ for the extreme Kerr BHs and high conversion efficiency. It suggests that the NDAFs may be suitable for most of LGRBs except for some extremely high energy sources.

Impact of Neutrino Flavour Conversion on the Diffuse Neutrino Background from Neutrino-dominated Accretion Flows
Neutrino flavour conversion strongly suppresses the diffuse neutrino background from neutrino-dominated accretion flows if the neutrino mass ordering is inverted, leaving a detectable signal only in the normal ordering.
