Scientific paper

The basic elements in the solar neutrino problem (the discrepancy between of observed capture rate for solar neutrinos in the C-37 detector and the predicted capture rate) are reviewed. Aspects considered are: the detector efficiency, the theory of stellar (solar) evolution, the nuclear physics of energy generation, and the uncertainties in the predictions. Solar neutrino experiments being actively pursued by different groups around the world are tabulated. Neither pure theory nor laboratory experiments have resolved the problem. We must turn to nature for an answer.
