Solar neutrino limit on axions and keV-mass bosons
The all-flavor solar neutrino flux measured by the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) constrains nonstandard energy losses to less than about 10% of the Sun's photon luminosity, superseding a helioseismological argument and providing new limits on the interaction strength of low-mass particles. For the axion-photon coupling strength we find g_a\gamma < 7E-10 1/GeV. We also derive explicit limits on the Yukawa coupling to electrons of pseudoscalar, scalar and vector bosons with keV-scale masses.

Solar Models: current epoch and time dependences, neutrinos, and helioseismological properties
We calculate accurate solar models and report the detailed time dependences of important solar quantities. We use helioseismology to constrain the luminosity evolution of the sun and report the discovery of semi-convecti…
New Solar Seismic Models and the Neutrino Puzzle
The SoHO spacecraft made astrophysicists achieve a major breakthrough in the knowledge of the Sun. In helioseismology, both GOLF and MDI experiments aboard SoHO greatly improve the accuracy of seismic data. More specific…
How Uncertain Are Solar Neutrino Predictions?
Solar neutrino fluxes and sound speeds are calculated using a systematic reevaluation of nuclear fusion rates. The largest uncertainties are identified and their effects on the solar neutrino fluxes are estimated.
Large Number, Dark Matter, Dark Energy, and the Superstructures in the Universe (with Extension)
Since there are dark matter particles (neutrino) with mass about 10^(-1)eV in the universe, the superstructures with a scale of 10^(19) solar mass [large number A is about 10^(19)] appeared around the era of the hydrogen…
What do we (not) know theoretically about solar neutrino fluxes?
Solar model predictions of 8B and p-p neutrinos agree with the experimentally-determined fluxes (including oscillations): phi(pp)_{measured} = (1.02 +- 0.02 +- 0.01)phi(pp)_{theory}, and phi(8B)_{measured} =(0.88 +- .04 …
