Description

The global data on solar neutrino rates and spectrum, including the SNO charged current rate, can be explained by LMA, LOW or the energy independent solution--corresponding to near-maximal mixing. All three favor a mild upward renormalization of the Cl rate. A mild downward shift of the B neutrino flux is favored by the energy independent and to a lesser extent the LOW solution, but not by LMA. A comparison with the ratio of SK elastic and SNO charged current scattering rates favors the LMA over the other two solutions, but by no more than 1.5σ
