Neutrinos from CNO cycle at the present epoch of the solar neutrino research
The importance of the study of solar neutrinos generated in CNO cycle is
discussed in view of the presently obtained data. The emphasis is given to the
precise detemination of the flux of low energy pp-neutrinos as a main topic of
future experimental program.Comment: 4 pages, 2 Figures, Contribution for Proceedings of the Erice School

On the Mass Eigenstate Composition of the 8B Neutrinos from the Sun
The present data of gallium experiments provide indirectly the only
experimental limit on the fraction of mass eigenstate for the B
neutrinos from the Sun. However, if to use the experimental data alone, the
fraction of and, consequently, still is allowed to
be varied within a rather broad range. The further experimental efforts are
needed to clear this point.Comment: 13 pages, 1 figure, 1 table. Corrected version, published in

On a Search for Hidden Photon CDM by a Multi-Cathode Counter
We report on a new technique of a Multi-Cathode Counter (MCC) developed to
search for hidden photon (HP) cold dark matter (CDM) with a mass from 5 to 500
eV. The method is suggested in the assumption that HP-photon mixing causes
emission of single electrons from a metal cathode if the mass of hidden photon
is greater than a work function of the metal. The measured effect from HP
should be dependent on work function of the metal and on the structure of
electronic shells of the metal used as a cathode. Potentially this can be used
for a verification of the results obtained. Some preliminary results for the
upper limit for mixing parameter X have been obtained for HP with a mass from 5
eV to 10 keV as a pure illustration of the potential of this technique. The
efforts are continued to refine the procedure of data treatment and to improve
the work of MCC. A new detector with a more developed design is under
construction.Comment: 13 pages, 9 figures; v.2: minor changes/corrections made, following
