Abstract.It is commonly and quite plausibly presumed that neutrino flavour transitions are responsible for essentially all of the discrepancy between the observed flux of neutrinos from the Sun and the theoretically calculated neutrino production rate. Indeed, the comparison between the detection rates by SuperKamiokande and by the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory are consistent with this presumption. Helioseismological analysis has set quite tight constraints on the conditions in the Sun’s core… Expand

The Sun produces its energy by the nuclear fusion of four protons into an α particle, chains of reactions that yield two positrons and two neutrinos. Since these lowenergy neutrinos are weaklyExpand
Measurement of the solar electron neutrino flux with the Homestake chlorine detector
The Homestake Solar Neutrino Detector, based on the inverse beta-decay reaction νe +37Cl →37Ar + e-, has been measuring the flux of solar neutrinos since 1970. The experiment has operated in a stableExpand

The Current State of Solar Modeling
Data from the GONG project and other helioseismic experiments reveal subtle errors in the models, such as an excess in sound speed just beneath the convection zone, which is plausible that the sound-speed differences reflect weak mixing in stellar interiors. Expand
