How do Uncertainties in the Surface Chemical Abundances of the Sun Affect the Predicted Solar Neutrino Fluxes?
John N. Bahcall, Aldo M. Serenelli
We show that uncertainties in the values of the surface heavy element abundances of the Sun are the largest source of the theoretical uncertainty in calculating the p-p, pep, 8B, 1…
Supernova 1993J: a veiled pulsar in a binary system?
Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz, Aldo M. Serenelli
The recent report of a binary companion to the progenitor of supernova 1993J may provide important clues for identifying the nature of the nascent compact object. Given the estimat…
Helioseismological Implications of Recent Solar Abundance Determinations
John N. Bahcall, Sarbani Basu, Marc Pinsonneault +1
We show that standard solar models are in good agreement with the helioseismologically determined sound speed and density as a function of solar radius, the depth of the convective…
How Accurately Can We Calculate the Depth of the Solar Convective Zone?
John N. Bahcall, Aldo M. Serenelli, Marc Pinsonneault
We evaluate the logarithmic derivative of the depth of the solar convective zone with respect to the logarithm of the radiative opacity. We use this expression to show that the rad…
