A closer look at the data collected from different detectors, reveal that the so-called solar neutrino problem is far from being solved. And contrary to the assessment of the Nobel Committee, the experimental results from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory cannot be a confirmation of the Standard Solar Model. In fact, the obsoleteness of the current model has been recently exposed by the crisis of solar abundance. Furthermore, using images obtained by the Solar Dynamics Observatory, researchers found the convective motions (the plasma motions at the Sun's interior) to be nearly 100 times smaller than current theoretical expectations.

The results of recent data from the 37 Cl , Kamiokande-II (K-II) and 71 Ga solar neutrino experiments are quantitatively analyzed. The results suggest that non-standard neutrino properties, instead of a non-standard solar model, are the correct explanation for the "solar neutrino problem." Assuming resonant neutrino oscillations, it is found that the "non-adiabatic" and "large angle" solutions are in quite good agreement with the data. The implications of these solutions for forthcoming solar neutrino experiments are discussed.

AbstractThe observation of 8B solar Neutrinos in the Kamiokande-II detector is presented. Based on 450 days of data in the time period of January 1987 through May 1988, the measured flux obtained with Ee ≥ 9.3 MeV was 0.46 ± 0.13 (stat) ± 0.08 (sys) of the value predicted by the standard solar model. The detector and analysis methods were improved since June 1988 and the background level has been decreased by a factor of about three since then.

I will summarize in four slides the 40 years of development of the standard solar model that is used to predict solar neutrino fluxes and then describe the current uncertainties in the predictions. I will dispel the misconception that the p-p neutrino flux is determined by the solar luminosity and present a related formula that gives, in terms of the p-p and 7 Be neutrino fluxes, the ratio of the rates of the two primary ways of terminating the p-p fusion chain. I will also attempt to explain why it took so long, about three and a half decades, to reach a consensus view that new physics is being learned from solar neutrino experiments. Finally, I close with a personal confession and some personal remarks.

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 report on the results obtained from the chlorine radiochemical solar neutrino experiment in the Homestake mine, Lead, SD. Over the period 1970-1988 a neutrino capture rate of 2.3 ± 0.3 SNU was observed. This rate is discussed in relation: to the theoretical standard solar model, the results from the Kamiokande II experiment, and variations in the solar neutrino flux.

Solar Neutrino Flux

A radiochemical 71 Ga- 71 Ge experiment to determine the primary flux of neutrinos from the Sun began measurements of the solar neutrino flux at the Baksan Neutrino Observatory in 1990. The number of 71 Ge atoms extracted from 30 tons of gallium in 1990 and from 57 tons of gallium in 1991 was measured in 12 runs during the period of January 1990 to December 1991. The combined 1990 and 1991 data-sets give a value of 58 + 17/ —24 (stat) ± 14 (syst) SNU. This is to be compared with 132 + 7/ —5 SNU predicted by the Standard Solar Model.
