Master's Research


My Master's thesis examined various numerical calculations and approximations for calculating the flux of solar neutrinos in three flavours. The main motivation was to examine the possible dependence on theta_13, and it was shown that low energy solar neutrinos would be the most sensitive to this parameter.
I also wrote a fairly complete C++ library to carry out the calculation numerically and using the various approximations discussed in the thesis. The code is available here, but you will have to contact me if you want to run it, as there is no help manual, although it is quite straightforward once one gets the jist of it.

The Code (Password Protected)
A tarball with the source, Makefile and required data for the solar and PREM models. Basically untar everything in a directory, modify the makefile and call me when it doesn't work.

Some help for the Code (Password Protected)
The usual ROOT generated html pages, quite helpful when the code is actually installed.
