| contents | Neutrino-dominated accretion flows (NDAFs) are one of the important MeV neutrino sources and significantly contribute to the cosmic diffuse neutrino background. In this paper, we investigate the spectrum of diffuse NDAF neutrino background (DNNB) by fully considering the effects of the progenitor properties and initial explosion energies based on core-collapse supernova (CCSN) simulations, and estimate the detectable event rate by Super-Kamiokande detector. We find that the predicted background neutrino flux is mainly determined by the typical CCSN initial explosion energy and progenitor metallicity. For the optimistic cases in which the typical initial explosion energy is low, the diffuse flux of DNNB is comparable to the diffuse supernova neutrino background, which might be detected by the upcoming larger neutrino detectors such as Hyper-Kamiokande, JUNO, and DUNE. Moreover, the strong outflows from NDAFs could dramatically decrease their contribution to the neutrino background. |
