Solar neutrinos and 1-3 leptonic mixing
Abstract
Effects of the 1-3 leptonic mixing on the solar neutrino observables are studied and the signatures of non-zero are identified. For this we have re-derived the formula for -survival probability including all relevant corrections and constructed the iso-contours of observables in the plane. Analysis of the solar neutrino data gives (90% C.L.) for eV. The combination of the ratio CC/NC at SNO and gallium production rate selects (). The global fit of all oscillation data leads to zero best value of . The sensitivity ( error) of future solar neutrino studies to can be improved down to 0.01 - 0.02 by precise measurements of the pp-neutrino flux and the CC/NC ratio as well as spectrum distortion at high ( MeV) energies. Combination of experimental results sensitive to the low and high energy parts of the solar neutrino spectrum resolves the degeneracy of angles and . Comparison of as well as measured in the solar neutrinos and in the reactor/accelerator experiments may reveal new effects which can not be seen otherwise.
