We show that interactions violating the conservation of lepton numbers in the neutrino sector could significantly alter the standard low entropy picture for the pre-supernova collapsing core of a massive star. A rapid neutrino-antineutrino…

A long-lived very light pseudoscalar boson would favor lepton flavor violating transitions of charged leptons. Its implications on the l_i --> l_j \gamma \gamma, and l_i --> l_j e^+ e^- transitions are investigated. Assuming 2 m_e < m_\phi…
