From the abstract: "Solar
neutrinos from 8B decay have been detected at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
via the charged current (CC) reaction on deuterium and the elastic scattering
(ES) of electrons. Comparison...
to the Super Kamiokande Collaboration's precision value of the flux inferred
from the ES reaction yields a 3.3(sigma)
difference, assuming the systematic uncertainties are normally distributed,
providing evidence of an active non-Ve
component to the solar flux. The total flux of active (8)B neutrinos is
determined to be 5.44 plus/minus 0.99 X
10(to the sixth) cm(to -2) s(to minus 1)."
