It is well-known that in addition to the standard LMA solution to solar anomaly, there is another solution called LMA-Dark which requires Non-Standard Interactions (NSI) with effective couplings as large as the Fermi coupling. Although this…

We study what will be learnt about the solar neutrino puzzle and solar neutrino oscillations once the data from the KamLAND reactor neutrino experiment (soon to become available) are combined with those from the current solar neutrino…
We perform global analysis of the solar neutrino data including the day and night spectra of events at SNO. In the context of two active neutrino mixing, the best fit of the data is provided by the LMA MSW solution with Delta m^2 = 6.15…

We analyze the existing solar neutrino experiment data and show the allowed regions. The result from SNO's salt phase itself restricts quite a lot the allowed region's area. Reactor neutrinos play an important role in determining…
We reanalyze the non-standard interaction (NSI) solutions to the solar neutrino problem in the light of the latest solar, atmospheric and reactor neutrino data. We show that such solutions, although preferred by the solar data and…
Recent SNO results give strong evidence that the solar neutrinos undergo the flavor conversion. Main issue now is the identification of the mechanism of conversion. The LMA MSW solution with $\Delta m^2 = (5 - 7) \cdot 10^{-5}$ eV$^2$,…
In the presence of non-standard neutrino interactions (NSI), oscillation data are affected by a degeneracy which allows the solar mixing angle to be in the second octant (aka the dark side) and implies a sign flip of the atmospheric…
In presence of non standard interactions, the solar neutrino data is consistent with two solutions, one close to the standard LMA solution with $\sin^2\theta_{12} \simeq 0.3$ and another with $\sin^2\theta_{12}^D \simeq…
We explore the impact of the data from the KamLAND experiment in constraining neutrino mass and mixing angles involved in solar neutrino oscillations. In particular we discuss the precision with which we can determine the the mass squared…
