Time-variations of Solar Neutrino Signals

نویسنده

چکیده

The most popular solutions of the solar neutrino problem which assume massive neutrinos predict varying with time signals in the solar neutrino detectors. The variations represent a distinctive feature of these solutions and do not depend on the theoretically predicted total flux of neutrinos from the Sun. The time scale of the variations ranges between an hour (MSW) and several years (neutrino magnetic moment). The amplitude of the variations depends on the neutrino oscillation parameters. Future detectors with high event rates will be able to test these predictions at a new level of precision. The prospects for testing neutrino physics solutions by these detectors will be discussed and the limits on the neutrino oscillation parameters that one should be able to obtain will be presented.

Time Variations of Solar Neutrino Signals and the Rsfcn Hypothesis

Resonant spin–flavour conversion of neutrinos (RSFCN) in twisting magnetic fields might be at the origin of the apparent anticorrelation between the 37 Ar production–rate in the Homestake solar neutrino detector and the solar activity. Moreover, it can account for the results of all solar neutrino experiments reported so far including the recent results of GALLEX and SAGE.

The Neutrino Magnetic Moment and Time Variations of the Solar Neutrino Flux

The present status of the neutrino magnetic moment solutions of the solar neutrino problem is summarized. After a brief review of the basics of the neutrino spin and spin–flavor precession I discuss the experimental data and show how the neutrino resonant spin–flavor precession (RSFP) mechanism can naturally account for sizeable time variations in the Homestake signal and no observable time var...

Effect of Coulomb collisions on time variations of the solar neutrino flux

We consider the possibility of time variations of the solar neutrino flux due to the radial motion of the Earth and neutrino interference effects. We calculate the time variations of the detected neutrino flux and the extent to which they are suppressed by Coulomb collisions of the neutrino emitting nuclei. We treat the process of neutrino emission under the second quantization method. A neutri...

We consider the possibility of MSW time variations of the solar neutrino flux due to the radial motion of the Earth and neutrino interference effects. We have calculated the time variations of the detected neutrino flux including collisional decoherence and all other significant physical decoherence effects. For two types of neutrinos there are two MSW neutrino adiabatic solutions, + and −. In ...

Testing the Vacuum Oscillation and the Msw Solutions of the Solar Neutrino Problem

Solar model independent tests of the vacuum oscillation and MSW solutions of the solar neutrino problem are considered. Detailed predictions for time (seasonal) variations of the signals in the future solar neutrino detectors (SNO, Super Kamiokande, BOREXINO, HELLAZ), if solar neutrinos take part in vacuum oscillations, are given. Results on the distortions of the spectra of 8B neutrinos, and o...
