The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) is an underground heavy-water Cherenkov detector designed to measure neutral (NC) and charged (CC) current interactions of 8B solar neutrinos on deuterium. This talk focused on the characterization of the detector response and on the Physics results from the second phase of SNO, in which 2 tonnes of NaCl were added to the heavy water, in order to enhance the sensitivity to NC interactions. This allowed for precision, energy-unconstrained measurements of the solar neutrino flux that confirmed solar model predictions and gave strong evidence for flavor change, excluding maximal flavor mixing at a level of 5σ. A status report was also given on the third phase of SNO, that aims to perform an event-by-event measurement of the NC rate.
