Description

Core-collapse supernovae are fascinating astrophysical objects for multimessenger studies. Gravitational waves (GWs) are expected to play a role in the supernova explosion mechanism, but their modelling is also challenging due to the stochastic nature of the dynamics and the vast possible progenitors, and moreover, the GW detection from these objects is still elusive with the already advanced detectors. Low-energy neutrinos will be emitted enormously during the core-collapse explosion and can help for the gravitational wave counterpart search. In this work we develop a multi-messengers strategy to search for such astrophysical objects by exploiting a global network of both low-energy neutrino and gravitational wave detectors. First, we discuss how to improve the detection potential of the neutrino sub-network by exploiting the temporal behaviour of a neutrino burst from a core-collapse supernova. Then, we combine the information provided by GW and neutrino in a multi-messenger strategy. Our method can better disentangle from noise the low statistical signals coming from weak (or far) supernovae giving us about $10^3$ lower \textit{false-alarm-probability} for recovered signal injections.
Keywords: multimessenger supernova core-collapse low-energy neutrino gravitational wave.
