Scientific paper

Neutrino oscillation results such as KamLAND, the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO), and Super-Kamiokande provide evidence for neutrino mass. Determination of the Dirac or Majorana nature of massive neutrinos is an important next step in neutrino physics. The presence of an electron antineutrino component of the solar neutrino flux would be a telltale sign that neutrinos are Majorana particles. The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory is sensitive to electron antineutrinos through charged current weak interactions with deuterium nuclei, barνe + d arrow e^+ + n + n . The current status of the solar electron antineutrino search at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory is presented.
