Neutrino Losses

.. index:: neutrino_cooling.include_recomb

We model thermal neutrino losses (plasma, photo-, pair-,
recombination, and Bremsstrahlung) using the method described in
:cite:`itoh:1996`. This neutrino loss term is included in all of the

* ``dsnuda`` : $d\epsilon_\nu/d\bar{A}$

* ``dsnudz`` : $d\epsilon_\nu/d\bar{Z}$

By default, we do not include the recombination terms when calculating the total losses since its effect is negligible.
This is controlled by the ``include_recomb`` parameter defined in ``Microphysics/neutrinos/_parameters``.
To include the recombination terms, set ``neutrino_cooling.include_recomb = 1`` in the inputs file.
