Scientific paper

If neutrinos have non-vanishing mass and non-vanishing magnetic moments, then electron neutrinos emitted in nuclear reactions in the solar interior may undergo flavour oscillations, spin precession or resonant spin-flavour precession. Assuming equal values for the magnetic moments of all neutrino flavours and using the data from Homestake and SuperKamiokande the authors obtain an upper limit on the neutrino magnetic moment and find μνe ≤ (2.2 - 2.3)×10-10μB, within four standard solar models. They also point out that this limit may be further reduced if the detector threshold energy for the νe,xe- scattering is decreased.
