We investigate how the anticipated neutral current rate from SNO will sharpen our understanding of the solar neutrino anomaly. Quantitative analyses are performed with representative values of this rate in the expected range of 0.8–1.2. This would provide a 5–10σ signal for νe transition into a state containing an active neutrino component. Assuming this state to be purely active one can estimate both the 8 B neutrino flux and the νe survival probability to a much higher precision than currently possible. Finally the measured value of the NC rate will have profound implications for the mass and mixing parameters of the solar neutrino oscillation solution.

Unitarity of the [Formula: see text] lepton flavor mixing matrix [Formula: see text] is unavoidably violated in a seesaw mechanism if its new heavy degrees of freedom are slightly mixed with the active neutrino flavors. We propose to use the atomic transition process [Formula: see text] (for [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]), where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] stand, respectively for the excited and ground levels of an atomic system, to probe or constrain the unitarity-violating effects of [Formula: see text]. We find that the photon spectrum of this transition will be distorted by the effects of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] as compared with the [Formula: see text] case. We locate certain frequencies in the photon spectrum to minimize the degeneracy of effects of the unitarity violation and uncertainties of the flavor mixing parameters themselves. The requirements of a nominal experimental setup to test the unitarity of [Formula: see text] are briefly discussed.

This paper reviews the constraints on the solar neutrino mixing parameters with data collected by the Homestake, SAGE, GALLEX, Kamiokande, SuperKamiokande, and SNO experiments. An emphasis will be given to the global solar neutrino analyses in terms of matter-enhanced oscillation of two active flavors. The results to-date, including both solar model dependent and independent measurements, indicate that electron neutrinos are changing to other active types on route to the Earth from the Sun. The total flux of solar neutrinos is found to be in very good agreement with solar model calculations. Future measurements will focus on greater accuracy for mixing parameters and on better sensitivity to low neutrino energies.
