Supernova Neutrino Detection

Abstract

World-wide, several detectors currently running or nearing completion are sensitive to a core collapse supernova neutrino signal in the Galaxy. I will briefly describe the nature of the neutrino signal and then survey current and future detection techniques. I will also explore what physics and astrophysics we can learn from the next Galactic core collapse.Comment: For the Proceedings of Neutrino 2000 - the X1X International Conference on Neutrino Physics and Astrophysics. 7 pages, 1 figur
