The detectable Supernova neutrino  

Core-collapse supernovae are critical for many astrophysical processes, 
and their mechanism remains intensely studied. These supernovae are also 
natural laboratories for studying a variety of physics. These endeavors 
are greatly enhanced by having a method of observing the interior of the 
collapsing star. The neutrinos that are emitted in each core collapse 
offer one such method. In this talk, I will discuss the prospects of 
supernova neutrino detection. Supernovae and their neutrino emission 
will be covered, followed by a discussion of which targets offer the 
best opportunity for detecting these neutrinos. The physics potential 
of detection will also be discussed. If time allows, an interesting 
parallel to thermonuclear supernovae will be drawn: using gamma rays 
to probe their interiors.
