The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) has precisely determined the total active ( ν x ) 8 B solar neutrino flux without assumptions about the energy dependence of the ν e survival probability. The measurements were made with dissolved NaCl in the heavy water to enhance the sensitivity and signature for neutral-current interactions. The flux is found to be 5 . 21 ± 0 . 27 (stat) ± 0 . 38 (syst) × 10 6 cm − 2 s − 1 , in agreement with previous measurements and standard solar models. A global…

Euclid preparation: IX. EuclidEmulator2 – power spectrum emulation with massive neutrinos and self-consistent dark energy perturbations

We present a new, updated version of the EuclidEmulator (called EuclidEmulator2), a fast and accurate predictor for the nonlinear correction of the matter power spectrum. Percent-level accurate…

Cosmic voids in modified gravity models with massive neutrinos

Cosmic voids are progressively emerging as a new viable cosmological probe. Their abundance and density profiles are sensitive to modifications of gravity, as well as to dark energy and neutrinos.…

A new concept is proposed to solve the solar neutrino problem, that is based on a hypothesis about the existence of a new interaction of electron neutrinos with nucleons mediated by massless…
