The Extreme Energies Lines in the Solar Neutrino Spectrum
Abstract
Tritium chain of the hydrogen cycle in the Sun including reactions 3He(e-,(e))(3)H(p,γ)(4)He is considered. At the distance of 1 a.u. the flux of tritium neutrinos is equal to 8.1· 10(4) cm(-2)s(-1). It is an order of magnitude higher than the flux of the (hep)-neutrinos. Radial distribution of (3)H-neutrinos yield inside the Sun and their energy spectrum which has a form of line at the energy of (2,5 3,0) keV are calculated. The flux of thermal tritium neutrinos is accompanied by a very weak flux of antineutrinos (~ 10(3) cm(-2)year(-1)) with energy lower than 18,6 keV. These antineutrinos are produced during Urca processes 3He<=>3H. The flux of the neutrinos of maximum possible energy (line 19,8 MeV) produced due to the (heep)-reaction (related to the (hep)-process) is estimated
