| Oct 30 at 12:32 | comment | added | David Hammen | @PM2Ring Yes, the question is a bit artificial. So? Lots of introductory level questions in the sciences might as well start with "assume a spherical cow ..." | |

| Oct 30 at 11:22 | comment | added | PM 2Ring | The info in the problem statement appears to neglect the huge numbers of thermal neutrinos (and antineutrinos), and only considers the neutrinos released when protons convert to neutrons. So it's a rather artificial problem. For info on the thermal neutrinos, please see astronomy.stackexchange.com/q/57832/16685 & links therein. | |
