In this theoretical study of successful core-collapse supernovae, the authors provide a detailed model of neutrino emission from the different phases of the transition - explosion to proto-neutron star cooling to late-time formation of either neutron star or black hole. They show that for a supernova in the Milky Way, these copiously produced neutrinos can be detected by current neutrino-detection experiments and used to extract information about the course of the event. The study offers a highly promising program to make full use of a rare core-collapse supernova event to extract as much physics as possible.
