We consider the possibilities of investigating the internal structure of the sun using the energy spectrum and the intensity of its neutrino radiation. The experimental determination of the solar neutrino flux will permit us to obtain values for some parameters which are important for the theory of the internal structure of the sun (e.g. the time for evolution and the concentrations of various isotopes in the interior). It is also possible to decide whether or not the gravitational constant varies with time.

One of the most attractive solutions to the solar-neutrino problem (including an anticorrelation of the solar-neutrino flux with sunspot activity) incorporates a Majorana neutrino having a flavor-changing transition moment as large as (0.1–1)×10−10 Bohr magnetons. This solution is compatible with all known laboratory, astrophysical and cosmological bounds. Here we show the consistency of the solution with the coherence condition for effective-mass eigenstates inside the sun.

Solar neutrino flux (Eν ≥ 7.5 MeV ) data from 1st January to April 1990 as measured in Kamiokande solar neutrino experiment have been analyzed statistically and have found that the solar neutrino data varies with the solar activity cycle with very high statistical significance (> 98% confidence level). Average solar neutrino flux data in the sunspot minimum range cannot be equal to twice the average solar neutrino flux data in the sunspot maximum range, which suggests that the neutrino flip through the magnetic field of the convection zone of the sun is not responsible for the solar neutrino flux variation. Thus the variation of solar neutrino flux with the solar activity cycle suggests that the solar activity cycle is due to the pulsating character of the nuclear energy generation inside the core of the sun.

It is shown that the sunspot data and the solar neutrino data anticorrelates except for the period of three years after the sunspot maximum. This suggests that the solar activity cycle is due to the pulsating character of the nuclear energy generation inside the core of the sun.

The latest Super-Kamiokande measurement of 8 B solar neutrino flux and recoil electron energy spectrum are presented. The highlights of our results are the day vs night flux asymmetry, which differs from zero at the 1.3 σ level, and the energy spectrum measurement, which shows no significant distortion compared to the BP98 standard solar model.

AbstractA procedure for inverting helioseismic data to determine the hydrogen abundance in the radiative interior of the sun is briefly described. Using Backus-Gilbert optimal averaging, the variation of sound speed, density and hydrogen abundance in the energy-generating core is estimated from low-degree p-mode frequencies. The result provides some evidence for there having been some redistribution of material during the sun’s main-sequence evolution. The inversion also suggests that the evolutionary age of the sun is perhaps some 10 per cent greater than the generally accepted value, and that the solar neutrino flux, based on standard nuclear and particle physics, is about 75 per cent of the standard-model value.
