The time-evolution feature of SN$\\nu$ BDM allows for %the possibly direct inference of DM mass $m_\\chi$, and results in significant background suppression with improving sensitivity. This paper extends the earlier study and provides a general framework for computing the SN$\\nu$ BDM fluxes for a supernova that occurs at any location in our galaxy. A bSM $U(1)_{L_\\mu-L_\\tau}$ model with its gauge boson coupling to both DM and the second and third generation of leptons is considered, which allows for both DM-$\\nu$ and DM-$e$ interactions. Detailed analysis of the temporal profile, angular distribution, and energy spectrum of the SN$\\nu$ BDM are performed. Unique signatures in SN$\\nu$ BDM allowing extraction of $m_\\chi$ and detail features that contain information of the underlying interaction type are discussed. Expected sensitivities on the above new physics model from Super-Kamiokande, Hyper-Kamiokande, and DUNE detections of BDM events induced by the next galactic SN are derived and compared with the existing bounds.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.03522v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2307.03522v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"signatures-of-afterglows-from-light-dark","repo_url":"https://github.com/yenhsunlin/snorer","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
