At COMPSTAR: neutrino cooling and CAS A

Topical lecture by Dmitry Yakovlev on neutrino processes in NS with a particular focus on superfluidity related effects (e.g. CPF, suppression of neutrino cooling due to superconducting core protons) immediately followed by a presentation and a discussion of recent results (i.e. fast cooling that could be taken as evidence of core superfluidity onset) on CAS A by P. Shternin.

After the coffee break CAS A will be again at the very centre of the scene as David Blaschke will show that superfluids core neutrons are not the only explanation.
