Neutrino Mixing and Future Solar Neutrino Experiments

Abstract

Possibilities of a model independent treatment of the data from future real-time solar neutrino experiments (SNO, Super-Kamiokande and others) are discussed. It is shown that in the general case of transitions of the initial solar $\nu_e$'s into $\nu_\mu$ and/or $\nu_\tau$ the total flux of initial 8B neutrinos and the $\nu_e$ survival probability can be determined directly from the experimental data. Lower bounds for the probability of transition of solar $\nu_e$'s into all possible sterile states are derived and expressed through measurable quantities.Comment: 3 pages.
