Larger effect for CNO fluxes (increase in Zc). 2%, 4%, 5%, 5.7% 6% (7Be, 8B, CNO) Opacity: increased sensitivity with increased T dependence. 3.2%, 7%, 4%, 5%, 6% (7Be, 8B, CNO)

If 1- defined as difference SSM(OP) SSM(OPAL), uncertainties are reduced: 1%, 2.4%, 1.3%, 2.1%, 2.2% (7Be, 8B, CNO) First approach a bit more conservative
29 BPS08 vs Experiment
30 Solar composition problem: attempted solutions Increased opacity below CZ (Bahcall et al. 2004) increase of order 10-12% to compensate for lower metallicity and recover location of RCZ and sound speed profile Difference too high? Frequency separation ratios don't fit BiSON data. May need + opacity in central regions as well
31 Solar composition problem: attempted solutions Increased opacity below CZ (Bahcall et al. 2004) increase of order 10-12% to compensate for lower metallicity and recover location of RCZ and sound speed profile Difference too high? Frequency separation ratios don't fit BiSON data. May need + opacity in central regions as well Increase neon abundance (Antia & Basu 2005; Bahcall et al. 2005) 0.4 dex increase needed gives right helioseismology Probably too large enhancement
32 Solar composition problem: attempted solutions Increased opacity below CZ (Bahcall et al. 2004) increase of order 10-12% to compensate for lower metallicity and recover location of RCZ and sound speed profile Difference too high? Frequency separation ratios don't fit BiSON data. May need + opacity in central regions as well Increase neon abundance (Antia & Basu 2005; Bahcall et al. 2005) 0.4 dex increase needed gives right helioseismology Probably too large enhancement Changes to mixing processes. Target increase contrast between surface and interior composition: enhanced diffusion, metal free accretion No satisfactory solution: Need too much ad-hoc tuning or additional processes
33 Solar composition problem: one word on abundances Caffau et al. (2008): solar oxygen abundance 8.76±0.05 (intermediate between GS98 and AGS05). Hydro-3D models. Przybilla et al. (2008): oxygen and neon abundances in B-type stars consistent with GS98 values but carbon lower than AGS05. Spread in abundances very low.
34 Conclusions Most recent cross section determinations affect somewhat fluxes and reduce significantly fluxes uncertainties; particularly S34 Two sets of solar abundances lead to contradictory results. Solar atmosphere models and solar interior models in disagreement Low-l modes used to provide direct information on the solar core Low-l modes used to show that conservative uncertainty errors are too conservative observational errors adopted in BPS08 reduced fluxes uncertainties No satisfactory solution to solar abundance problem within the framework of the SSM (or outside, to the best of my knowledge) Can solar neutrino experiments help discriminate between solar compositions?
