The flux of neutrinos from the sun's core depends on the rate at which the sun produces energy, a testable prediction as Ray Davis realized in the early 1960s. How that test turned out is one of the most dramatic stories in modern physics. With the hindsight of our current understanding, it is interesting to look back at the experimental and theoretical steps that led to the disclosure of...

Super-Kamiokande, 50,000 ton Imaging Water Cherenkov detector,
can detect neutrinos with vary wide range of energy from 3.5 MeV to above a few hundreds of GeV.
Study of solar neutrinos is one of the major subjects of the experiment.
Super-K started to take data on 1st of April in 1996 and has been operated continuously for more than 20 years. Super-K has shown the evidence of the neutrino...

The JUNO liquid scintillator-based experiment, construction of which in ongoing
in Jiangmen (China), will start operations in 2020 and will detect antineutrinos
from nearby reactors; but also solar neutrinos via elastic scattering
on electrons. Its physics goals are broad; its primary aim to measure the
neutrino mass ordering demands to collect large statistics (from which
descends JUNO’s...
