Scientific paper

Mazurek's (1979) hypothesis, that neutrino oscillations may be able to transfer leptonic, zero-point energy to baryons during the gravitational collapse of a massive star which ends in a stellar explosion, is discussed. Upon derivation of the characteristic lengths for neutrino oscillation propagation in vacuum and in extremely dense matter, it becomes evident that vacuum oscillations can be suppressed in dense matter and that they should therefore have no influence on the neutrino emission of neutron stars.
