Results from atmospheric and solar neutrinos experiments
Description
This paper is a summary of non-accelerator neutrino physics, concentrating on the latest experimental results using atmospheric and solar neutrinos to study neutrino oscillation. Neutrino oscillation is well-established in atmospheric neutrinos and current efforts aim to better measure and understand the phenomenon. Solar neutrinos continue to present an unsolved puzzle, with the latest data from Super-Kamiokande exhibiting a large flux deficit, but no significant day-night flux difference or spectral distortion. For both atmospheric and solar neutrinos, the data prefers oscillation between active flavors (νe,νμ,νγ) and disfavors a 2-flavor oscillation to ν-sterile as the primary effect. (author)
