One of the greatest uncertainties in any modeling of inner engine of core-collapse supernova (CCSN) is neutrino flavor conversions driven by neutrino self-interactions. We carry out large-scale numerical simulations of multi-energy, multi-angle, three-flavor framework, and general relativistic quantum kinetic neutrino transport in spherical symmetry with an essential set of neutrino-matter interactions under a realistic fluid profile of CCSN. Our result suggests that the neutrino heating in the gain region is reduced by $\sim 40\%$ due to fast neutrino-flavor conversion (FFC). We also find that the total luminosity of neutrinos is enhanced by $\sim 30 \%$, for which the substantial increase of heavy-leptonic neutrinos by FFCs are mainly responsible. This study provides evidence that FFC has a significant impact on the delayed neutrino-heating mechanism.

  1. Collective neutrino-antineutrino pair oscillations

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    In anisotropic neutrino gases, νν-bar pairing instabilities emerge when the excessive pair-occupation number distribution changes sign, producing pair conversions at growth rates comparable to fast flavor instabilities.

  2. Intermittent Turbulence, Fast Flavor Conversion, and Observable Supernova Probes

    astro-ph.HE 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Using a She-Leveque cascade for intermittent turbulence in supernovae, the model predicts a fast flavor conversion fraction of approximately 0.455 and heating corrections of 4-6% whose sign depends on the neutrino spe...

  3. Bifurcated Impact of Neutrino Fast Flavor Conversion on Core-collapse Supernovae Informed by Multi-angle Neutrino Radiation Hydrodynamics

    astro-ph.HE 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Fast flavor conversion of neutrinos bifurcates supernova explosion outcomes: it aids shock revival in low-mass progenitors but inhibits it in higher-mass ones, controlled by mass accretion rate.

  4. Flavor Conversion Enhances or Suppresses Supernova Explodability Independent of the Progenitor Mass

    astro-ph.HE 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Neutrino flavor conversion in supernova cores can enhance or suppress explodability depending on the conversion location, independent of progenitor mass.

  5. Neutrino Flavor Conversion Shapes the Rate of Failed Core-collapse Supernovae

    astro-ph.HE 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Simulations of 195 stellar progenitors indicate that neutrino flavor conversion alters explodability and remnant mass distributions, particularly for stars of 16-30 solar masses.
