✦ Synopsis

The Homestake chlorine solar neutrino detector has measured the total flux of electron neutrinos from the Sun above 0.814 MeV as 2.56fO.l6(stat)fO.l6(syst) SNU compared to the predicted flux of 7.5 SNU. When combined with the recent SNO measurement of the electron neutrino flux from 'B decays, the Homestake measurement gives 0.55 f 0.27 SNU for the "1 MeV" electron neutrino flux (7J3e, PeP and CNO) compared to the prediction of 1.83 SNU, assuming no neutrino flavor transitions.

We calculate the cross section for the reaction, u u + ~2C ~ /x-+ 12N(~s), from threshold to 300 MeV for different assumptions concerning the contribution of the pseudoscalar form factor. We also obtain a differential cross section for this reaction for a possible test of whole nucleus CVC at higher
