Volume emission<br />
of novel particles<br />
Emission of very weakly interacting<br />
particles would “steal” energy from the<br />
neutrino burst and shorten it.<br />
(Early neutrino burst powered by accretion,<br />
not sensitive to volume energy loss.)<br />
Late-time time signal most sensitive observable
