Guzzo Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas Supernova Wave packets Neutrino oscillation In this work we briefly review the wave packet approach of two generation neutrino oscillation, aiming itsdescription in a progenitor star supernova environment. We begin calculating the wave packet size in manysituations: solar and supernova plasma medium, considering nuclear interactions, as well as accelerators andreactors. This quantity is important to calculate the coherence length, which we compare with the oscillationlength to verify if neutrino oscillation will or will not occur. Finally, we compare the wave packet treatment ofneutrino oscillation with the plane wave formalism in a progenitor star supernova environment 2007 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46437813 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.37
