Experimental evidence of neutrinos produced in the CNO fusion cycle in the Sun

Nature, 2020 - nature.com
For most of their existence, stars are fuelled by the fusion of hydrogen into helium. Fusion
proceeds via two processes that are well understood theoretically: the proton–proton (pp) …

Comprehensive measurement of pp-chain solar neutrinos

Nature, 2018 - nature.com
About 99 per cent of solar energy is produced through sequences of nuclear reactions that
convert hydrogen into helium, starting from the fusion of two protons (the pp chain). The …
