Description

The mutual consistency between standard solar models is studied based on the recent Los Alamos opacity tables. Satisfactory agreement is found among these models concerning the helium content and the neutrino capture rates. The reference model leads to a solar helium content of 0.276 + or - 0.012 by mass fraction. 75 references
