| Popis: | We discuss how matter-enhanced active-sterile neutrino transformation in both neutrino and antineutrino channels could enable the production of the rapid neutron capture (r-process) nuclei in neutrino-heated supernova ejecta. In this scheme the lightest sterile neutrino would be heavier than the electron neutrino and split from it by a vacuum mass-squared difference roughly between 3 and 70 eV$^2$ and vacuum mixing angle given by $\sin^2 2\theta_{es} > 10^{-4}$. Comment: 27 pages plus twelve figures. Submitted to Phys. Rev. C |
