Abstract

The Homestake chlorine solar neutrino detector has measured the total flux of electron neutrinos from the Sun above 0.814 MeV as 2.56±0.16(stat)±0.16(syst) SNU compared to the predicted flux of 7.5 SNU. When combined with the recent SNO measurement of the electron neutrino flux from 8 B decays, the Homestake measurement gives 0.55 ± 0.27 SNU for the “1 MeV” electron neutrino flux ( 7 Be, PeP and CNO) compared to the prediction of 1.83 SNU, assuming no neutrino flavor transitions.
