dc.descriptionWe study two-flavor collective neutrino oscillations in the dense-neutrino region above the neutrino sphere in a supernova (SN). The angular dependence of the neutrino-neutrino interaction potential causes "multi-angle" effects that can lead either to complete kinematical decoherence in flavor space or only to small differences between different trajectories. This nonlinear system switches abruptly between "self-maintained coherence" and "self-induced decoherence" among the angular modes, depending on the strength of the deleptonization flux. For a realistic SN the quasi single-angle behavior is probably typical, simplifying the numerical treatment and probably allowing for the survival of observational features of flavor oscillations.
