Scientific paper

The possibility of a two-bang stellar collapse originating SN 1987A, and having the characteristics of the events recorded in Mont Blanc and Kamiokande, is discussed here. A possible scenario is suggested: a massive rotating star is fragmented into two pieces, one light and the other heavy, at the onset of the collapse. The massive component collapses to a black hole, and produces the first burst. Neutrinos are trapped inside the collapsing star because of elastic scattering in the outer core off heavy nuclei. It is shown that neutrinos fill up the quantum states, producing a degenerate neutrino gas. The second burst is explained by coalescence of the light fragment onto the massive black hole.
