The study of solar neutrinos has given a fundamental contribution both to astroparticle and to elementary particle physics, offering an ideal test of solar models and offering at the same time relevant indications on the fundamental interactions among ...

Experimental work with solar neutrinos has illuminated the properties of neutrinos and tested models of how the sun produces its energy. Three experiments continue to take data, and at least seven are in various stages of planning or construction.

Standard Solar Neutrinos [PDF]
An improved standard solar model has been used to calculate the fluxes of standard solar neutrinos. It includes premain sequence evolution, element diffusion, partial ionization effects, and all the possible nuclear reactions between the main elements ...

Spectroscopy of Solar Neutrinos [PDF]
In the last years, liquid-scintillator detectors have opened a new window for the observation of low-energetic astrophysical neutrino sources. In 2007, the solar neutrino experiment Borexino began its data-taking in the Gran Sasso underground laboratory.

Invisible Labor and the "Ghost Particle": Underground Physics at the Kolar Gold Fields. [PDF]
Abstract When cosmic rays—high‐energy particles from outer space—encounter the Earth's atmosphere, they produce particles called neutrinos. To detect them, physicists go underground inside deep mines where the overlying rock can filter out the cosmic‐ray background radiation.

The Future of Solar Neutrinos [PDF]
In this article we review the current state of the field of solar neutrinos, including flavor oscillations, nonstandard effects, solar models, cross section measurements, and the broad experimental program thus motivated and enabled. We describe the historical discoveries that contributed to current knowledge, and define critical open questions to be ...

Neutrino masses and solar neutrinos [PDF]
It has been pointed out by Bahcall and Bethe and others that all solar-neutrino data can be explained by Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein oscillations with $m({\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\mu}})\ensuremath{\sim}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}3}$ eV consistent with ideas of grand unified theories (GUT's).

The predicted capture rate in the Cl37 experiment for detecting solar neutrinos is calculated using the results of recent nuclear experiments and solar-model investigations. It is shown that additional experiments (e.g., with H2, Li7, B11, or ν-e scattering) are necessary to establish the relative contributions of the proton-proton chain and the CNO ...

Solar neutrinos: Solar physics and neutrino physics [PDF]
Abstract It is shown that the current solar neutrino situation, with results from the Homestake experiment, the Kamiokande experiment, GALLEX and SAGE is unfortunately still ambiguous. The differences between observations and the standard solar theory may still be due to either astrophysical inputs or new neutrino physics.
