Abstract:

A search was conducted for TeV γ-rays emitted from the direction of the ultra-high-energy cosmic ray detected by the Fly's Eye experiment with energy E ∼ 3 × 10²⁰ eV. No enhancement was found at a level of 10^-10 cm^-2 s^-1 for E > 350 GeV. A steady source of ultra-high-energy cosmic ray protons or photons would be expected to produce a γ-ray flux above this level. An upper limit was also set for the flux of TeV γ-rays from 3C 147, the most prominent active galactic nucleus in the error box.

Abstract:

The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory is a 1000 T D2O Cerenkov detector that is sensitive to B-8 solar neutrinos. The energy, radius, and direction with respect to the sun is Measured for each neutrino event; these distributions are used to separately determine the rates of the charged current, neutral current and electron scattering reactions of neutrinos on deuterium. Assuming an undistorted B-8 spectrum, the nu(e) component of the B-8 solar flux is phi(e) = 1.76(-0.05)(+0.05) (stat.)(-0.09)(+0.09) (syst.) X 10(6) cm(-2)s(-1) based on events with a measured kinetic energy above 5 MeV. The non-nu(e) component is phi(mutau) = 3.41(-0.45)(+0.45)(stat.)(-0.45)(+0.48) (syst.) X 10(6) cm(-2)s(-1), 5.3sigma greater than zero, providing strong evidence for solar nu(e) flavor transformation. The total flux measured with the NC reaction is phi(NC) = 5.09(-0.43)(+0.44) (stat.)(-0.43)(+0.46) (syst.) X 10(6) cm(-2)s(-1), consistent with solar models. The night minus day rate is 14.0% +/- 6.3%(+1.5)(-1.4)% of the average rate. If the total flux of active neutrinos is additionally constrained to have no asymmetry, the nu(e) asymmetry is found to be 7.0% +/- 4.9%(+1.3)(-1.2)%. A global solar neutrino analysis in terms of matter-enhanced oscillations of two active flavors strongly favors the Large Mixing Angle (LMA) solution.
