"The Solar Neutrinos: The Story Of A Problem And Its Solution"

Dr. Rocco Schiavilla
Old Dominion University


The physics of neutrinos is currently one of the most active fields of research in astrophysics and particle physics.  In this talk I will discuss the solar neutrino
problem and how its recent solution has provided confirmation for a strange property of neutrinos, postulated by Pontecorvo in the late fifties: the property of flavor oscillations.


Presentation: OCNPS 200 @ 3:00 pm
