چکیده

We explore a novel possibility of determining the solar model parameters, which serve as input in the calculations of the solar neutrino fluxes, by exploiting the data from direct measurements of the fluxes. More specifically, we use the rather precise value of the 8B neutrino flux, φB obtained from the global analysis of the solar neutrino and KamLAND data, to derive constraints on each of the solar model parameters on which φB depends. We also use more precise values of 7Be and pp fluxes as can be obtained from future prospective data and discuss whether such measurements can help in reducing the uncertainties of one or more input parameters of the Standard Solar Model.

Astroparticle physics with solar neutrinos

Solar neutrino experiments observed fluxes smaller than the expectations from the standard solar model. This discrepancy is known as the "solar neutrino problem". Flux measurements by Super-Kamiokande and SNO have demonstrated that the solar neutrino problem is due to neutrino oscillations. Combining the results of all solar neutrino experiments, parameters for solar neutrino oscillations are o...

A road map to solar neutrino fluxes, neutrino oscillation parameters, and tests for new physics

We analyze all available solar and related reactor neutrino experiments, as well as simulated future 7Be, p− p, and pep solar neutrino experiments. We treat all solar neutrino fluxes as free parameters subject to the condition that the total luminosity represented by the neutrinos equals the observed solar luminosity (the ‘luminosity constraint’). Existing experiments plus the luminosity constr...

Solar Neutrino Measurements

A review of solar neutrino experiments is provided, including experimental measurements to date and proposed future measurements. Experiments to date have provided a clear determination that solar neutrinos are undergoing flavor transformation and that the dominant mechanism for this transformation is oscillation. The mixing parameters are well defined and limits are placed on subdominant modes...

Solar neutrinos before and after Neutrino 2004

We compare, using a three neutrino analysis, the allowed neutrino oscillation parameters and solar neutrino fluxes determined by the experimental data available Before and After Neutrino 2004. New data available after Neutrino 2004 include refined KamLAND and gallium measurements. We use six different approaches to analyzing the KamLAND data. We present detailed results using all the available ...

Solar Neutrinos: Where We Are

This talk compares standard model predictions for solar neutrino experiments with the results of actual observations. Here ‘standard model’ means the combined standard model of minimal electroweak theory plus a standard solar model. I emphasize the importance of recent analyses in which the neutrino fluxes are treated as free parameters, independent of any constraints from solar models, and the...
