ON THE HOMESTAKE NEUTRINO DATA

Ar-37 production rates from the Homestake experiment suggest a possibl e anticorrelation between solar neutrino flux and solar activity. In t his paper we present results from linear correlation analyses between Homestake data and several solar activity parameters in the period 197 0-1990. Our results support the hypothesis that Homestake neutrino flu xes exhibit a (positive or negative) correlation with those parameters , but they also suggest that the heliomagnetic field in the subphotosp here could be responsible for the observed flux modulation.
