Description
Neutrinos play a fundamental role in core-collapse supernovae and compact binary mergers. In such dense environments, the coherent forward scattering of neutrinos on each other makes the flavor evolution a non-linear phenomenon. Using a quantum-kinetic approach, we model the neutrino flavor transformation in the presence of neutrino advection, neutrino-matter collisions, and neutrino self-interactions. In this talk, I will explore the impact of inhomogeneities arising in the matter background and temporal perturbations in the fast flavor evolution.
