Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
Description
A description is given of the proposed Sudbury Neutrino Observatory based on a 1000 tonne heavy water Cherenkov detector which is being designed. This detector would allow the measurement of neutrinos by the three reactions ν/sub e/d → ppe, ν/sub x/e → ν/sub x/e and ν/sub x/d → ν/sub x/pn (where ν/sub x/ is any left-handed neutrino). The application of the detector to the resolution of the solar neutrino problem is discussed
