Sooner and more• Faster progress
– Alternative to a galactic SN! • ~20 events/yr/Mt everyday physics!
• New science– What’s typical ?– New/rare SN types– Cosmological Sne
• Physics in the 10-100 MeV window?

New SN types: failed SNe• M > 40 Msun, 9-22% of all collapses
• Direct BH-forming collapse (no explosion):– Higher energies: E0 ~ 20 – 24 MeV
• For all flavors• Due to rapid contraction of protoneutron star before
BH formation
– Electron flavors especially luminous• (e- and e+ captures)

Summary• DSNnF may be seen with few years running!
– 100 kt LAr : O(10) events– 0.4 Mt water : O(102) events
• New science:– Typical neutrino emission– Sensitive to failed Sne– Other physics in energy window?
• To advance further:– Resolve parameter degeneracies (theory)– reduce background at low E
