"As noted in Ref. [18], the coincidence in time between the change in the 54Mn counting rate and the solar flare, along with other observations, is consistent with a mechanism based on a change in during the solar flare." "" doesn't translate into ASCII, but represents the Solar neutrino flux. Note that since neutrinos encounter very little resistance when traveling through matter, they can escape from even the core of the Sun almost instantaneously, while the other forms of energy released in the core take years to reach the surface. Since AFAIK neutrinos are only created by weak force reactions, and solar flares are a surface phenomenon, for the two to be concurrent would appear to imply that the weak force reactions are happening at the surface rather than deep in the core. Since there is no known mechanism that can bring about a change in decay rate, involving the weak force, I draw the conclusion that the putative change in neutrino flux would have to be caused by a change in the number of fusion reactions taking place, and furthermore, that these would have to be taking place at the surface. This is however in conflict with the current model of solar operation. However it would be supported by a model of solar activity where Hydrino based fusion occurs at the surface. IOW Solar flares might be powered by sudden bursts of Hydrino fusion. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
