    "abstract": "A first order phase transition at high baryon density implies that a mixed\nphase can occupy a significant region of the interior of a neutron star. In\nthis article we investigate the effect of a droplet phase on neutrino transport\ninside the core. Two specific scenarios of the phase transition are examined,\none having a kaon condensate and the other having quark matter in the high\ndensity phase. The coherent scattering of neutrinos off the droplets greatly\nincreases the neutrino opacity of the mixed phase. We comment on how the\nexistence of such a phase will affect a supernova neutrino signal.",
