We dedicate this paper to our colleague Arnon Dar on the occasion of his 60th birthday. We would like to thank F. T. Avignoni, C. Rosenfeld, and S. Mishra for early discussions on the KARMEN anomaly and Y. Alster, D. Asheri, A. Kerman, and E. Piasetzky for discussions on the neutron hypothesis. The work of all three authors has been supported by the Israel–US bi-national fund, grant 94-314. The work of I.G. and S.N. also by the Israel national Science Foundation, grant 561/99 and the work by R. N. M. is supported by the NSF grant no. PHY-9802551.

N2 - We show, that SN1987A can serve as an astrophysical laboratory for testing the viability of the assertion that a new massive neutral fermion is implied by the KARMEN data. We show that a wide range of the parameters characterizing the proposed particle is ruled out by the above constraints making this interpretation very unlikely. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
