Abstract
A flow velocity field that has a "sink" drives the core He-3 nuclear reacti on diffusion system to instability to jump from the original state to the n ew one, in which the total amout of He-3 is enhanced. This alters the origi nal competition between pp I and pp II Spp III chains, and thus potentially suppresses the production of both the Be-7 and B-8 neutrino fluxes.
