Plasma neutrino energy loss due to the axial-vector current at the late stages of stellar evolution
Based on the Weinberg-Salam theory, the plasma neutrino energy loss rates of vector and axialvector contributions are studied.A ratable factor of the rates from the axial-vector current relative to those of the total neutrino energy loss rates is accurately calculated.The results show that the ratable factor will reach a maximum of 0.95 or even more at relatively higher temperature and lower density (such as P/μe< 10~7 g/cm~3).Thus the rates of the axial-vector contribution cannot be neglected.On the other hand, the rates of the axialvector contribution are on the order of~0.01% of the total vector contribution, which is in good agreement with Itoh's at relatively high density (such as p/μe>10~7 g/cm~3) and a temperature of T≤10~(11) K.
