Abstract
In this paper, the influence of a third body-the single particles of t he plasma-on the rate of nuclear reactions in the interior of the sun is calculated using a semiclassical approach. The results suggest that increases ranging from 2% to 8% are possible for the rate of nuclear reactions in the solar core. The implications of these results for sol ar neutrino detectors is estimated.
