Cornering Solar Radiative-Zone Fluctuations with KamLAND and SNO Salt
We update the best constraints on fluctuations in the solar medium deep
within the solar Radiative Zone to include the new SNO-salt solar neutrino
measurements. We find that these new measurements are now sufficiently precise
that neutrino oscillation parameters can be inferred independently of any
assumptions about fluctuation properties. Constraints on fluctuations are also
improved, with amplitudes of 5% now excluded at the 99% confidence level for
correlation lengths in the range of several hundred km. Because they are
sensitive to correlation lengths which are so short, these solar neutrino
results are complementary to constraints coming from helioseismology.Comment: 4 pages, LaTeX file using RevTEX4, 6 figures include
