Abstract

The role of weakly bound neutral clusters, such as dineutrons and tetraneutrons, in matter of high density and high temperature is discussed. Under such conditions, which are characteristic of core-collapse supernovae, the lifetime of multineutrons may prove to be sufficiently long for them to have a pronounced effect on the formation of the chemical composition. The influence of the multineutron binding energy and other nuclear properties on the magnitude of the effect being considered is examined.
