We study the extent to which the SAGE experiment data indicate the permanence of the solar neutrino flux. It is shown that in the first approximation this flux is constant and its distribution function is unimodal. Using a more detailed analysis one finds out that data of the first years of experiment (1990-1992) demonstrate a time dependence which is slightly different from what was found for the subsequent years (1993-2006). The distinctive feature of the first years of experiment is a high dispersion of neutrino flux in comparison with the following epoch. We discuss possible astronomical consequences of this result.

Muon-neutrino elastic scattering on electrons is an observable neutrino process whose cross section is precisely known. Consequently a measurement of this process in an accelerator-based $ u_mu$ beam can improve the knowledge of the absolute neutrino flux impinging upon the detector; typically this knowledge is limited to $sim$ 10% due to uncertainties in hadron production and focusing. We have isolated a sample of 135 $pm$ 17 neutrino-electron elastic scattering candidates in the segmented scintillator detector of MINERvA, after subtracting backgrounds and correcting for efficiency. We show how this sample can be used to reduce the total uncertainty on the NuMI $ u_mu$ flux from 9% to 6%. Our measurement provides a flux constraint that is useful to other experiments using the NuMI beam, and this technique is applicable to future neutrino beams operating at multi-GeV energies.

With SNO data on electron-neutrino flux from the sun, it is possible to derive the $ u_e$ survival probability $P_{ee}(E)$ from existing experimental data of Super-Kamiokande, gallium experiments and Homestake. The combined data of SNO and Super-Kami okande provide boron $ u_e$ flux and the total flux of all active boron neutrinos, giving thus $P_{ee}(E)$ for boron neutrinos. The Homestake detector, after subtraction of the signal from boron neutrinos, gives the flux of Be+CNO neutrinos, and $P_{ee}$ for the corresponding energy interval, if the produced flux is taken from the Standard Solar Model (SSM). Gallium detectors, GALLEX, SAGE and GNO, detect additionally pp-neutrinos. The pp-flux can be calculated subtracting from the gallium signal the rate due to boron, beryllium and CNO neutrinos. The ratio of the measured $pp$-neutrino flux to that predicted by the SSM gives the survival probability for $pp$-neutrinos. Comparison with theoretical survival probabilities shows that the best (among known models) fit is given by LMA and LOW solutions.

MAssive Compact Halo Objects such as brown dwarfs, Jupiters, and black holes are prime candidates to comprise the dark halo of our galaxy. Paczynski noted that objects (dubbed MACHOs) with masses in the range $10^{-6}M_odot < M simlt 100 M_odot$. can be detected via gravitational microlensing of stars in the Magellanic Clouds with the caveat that only about one in $10^6$ stars will be lensed at any given time. Our group has recently begun a search for microlensing using a refurbished 1.27 meter telescope at the Mount Stromlo Observatory in Australia. Since the summer of 1992, we have been imaging up to $10^7$ stars a night in the Large Magellanic Cloud using our large format two-color $3.4times 10^7$ pixel CCD camera. Here I report on our first results based on an analysis of $sim 10^6$ of these stars. Although this is not enough data to make definitive statements about the nature of the dark matter, we are able to conclude that the rate of variable star background events is not larger than the expected MACHO signal.
This article presents a comparative analysis of solar activity data, Mt Wilson diameter data, Super-Kamiokande solar neutrino data, and nuclear decay data acquired at the Lomonosov Moscow State University (LMSU). We propose that salient periodicities in all of these datasets may be attributed to r-mode oscillations. Periodicities in the solar activity data and in Super-Kamiokande solar neutrino data may be attributed to r-mode oscillations in the known tachocline, with normalized radius in the range 0.66 to 0.74, where the sidereal rotation rate is in the range 13.7 to 14.6 year-1. We propose that periodicities in the Mt Wilson and LMSU data may be attributed to similar r-mode oscillations where the sidereal rotation rate is approximately which we attribute to a hypothetical inner tachocline separating a slowly rotating core from the radiative zone. We also discuss the possible role of the RSFP (Resonant Spin Flavor Precession) process, which leads to estimates of the neutrino magnetic moment and of the magnetic field strength in or near the solar core.
A search for the solar neutrino effective magnetic moment has been performed using data from 1291.5 days exposure during the second phase of the Borexino experiment. No significant deviations from the expected shape of the electron recoil spectrum fr om solar neutrinos have been found, and a new upper limit on the effective neutrino magnetic moment of $mu_{ u}^{eff}$ $<$ 2.8$cdot$10$^{-11}$ $mu_{B}$ at 90% c.l. has been set using constraints on the sum of the solar neutrino fluxes implied by the radiochemical gallium experiments.Using the limit for the effective neutrino moment, new limits for the magnetic moments of the neutrino flavor states, and for the elements of the neutrino magnetic moments matrix for Dirac and Majorana neutrinos, are derived.
