The MSW effect - the adiabatic flavor conversion of neutrinos in matter
driven by density change is realized for solar neutrinos propagating inside the Sun.
The features and status of the ``LMA MSW solution'' are described.
Recent results on oscillations of the solar neutrinos inside the Earth are presented.
New physics beyond the standard three neutrino paradigm includes
non-standard...

This talk will discuss neutral-current coherent elastic
neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) experiments using low-threshold
detectors and different neutrino sources. I will explore the
potential physics reach of these measurements with emphasis on
possibilities for future solar neutrino detection.

As liquid xenon dark matter detectors advance, they become increasingly more sensitive to neutrino sources. In particular, they will obtain sensitivity to solar neutrinos through both elastic electron scattering and coherent elastic nuclear scattering. While these solar neutrinos constitute the ultimate background in the search for dark matter, they will also afford us an opportunity to study...
