Recent Results from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
A.W.P. Poon (for the SNO Collaboration)
TL;DR
The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory provided definitive evidence of neutrino flavor transformation by measuring both electron neutrino flux and total active neutrino flux from the Sun, confirming neutrino oscillations.
Contribution
This paper reports the first model-independent demonstration of neutrino flavor transformation using SNO measurements.
Findings
Confirmed neutrino flavor transformation in 2002
Measured fluxes of electron neutrinos and total active neutrinos
Validated neutrino oscillation models
Abstract
The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) measures both the flux of the electron-type neutrinos and the total flux of all active flavours of neutrinos originating from the Sun. A model-independent test of neutrino flavour transformation was performed by comparing these two measurements. In 2002, this flavour transformation was definitively demonstrated. In this talk, results from these measurements and the current status of the SNO detector are presented.
