Consistency of 8B neutrino spectra
Abstract
We identify and quantify systematic effects not accounted for in two previous measurements of the alpha-alpha relative-energy distribution in the beta decay of 8B, which can explain the apparent disagreement with respect to two newer measurements. This settles a current dispute concerning the shape of the 8B neutrino spectrum of importance to solar-neutrino studies.
