Description

The current status of spin flavor precession (SFP) in the Sun is reviewed. It is shown that this mechanism is disfavored as a leading solution to the solar neutrino problem. The case of SFP as a sub-leading solution is also discussed. For this case, the recent KamLAND constraint on solar anti-neutrino flux provides a stringent constraint on the neutrino magnetic moment down to μν ≤ few x 10-12
