Sensitivity of SK to Reactor Neutrinos
... Massive stars end their life by collapse into a neutron star or black hole. In this process they give off 99% of the collapse energy (which is huge) in neutrinos of all types. The spectrum and time evolution of the neutrinos is of great scientific interest as it is the only way to directly observe t ...
