We derive the cross section of neutrino-nucleon scatterings in supernova magnetic fields, including weak-magnetism and recoil corrections. Since the weak interaction violates the parity, the scattering cross section asymmetrically depends…

We quantify the impact of strong magnetic fields (assuming $B=B_0\cdot r_0^3/r^3$ with $B_0\gtrsim 10^{16}$ G) on the neutrino transport in core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe). Magnetic fields quantize the momenta of electrons and positrons,…

The effect of a strong magnetic field on the dominant neutrino emissivity in strange stars is investigated. In ultra strong magnetic field, there exists an enhanced neutrino emission because the charged particles are confined to the lowest…
