Could Neutrinos Tell Us About the Inside of the Sun?

Neutrinos generated through solar fusion reactions travel effortlessly through the Sun’s dense core. Each specific fusion process creates neutrinos with distinctive signatures, potentially providing a method to examine the Sun’s internal structure. Multiple neutrino detection observatories on Earth are now capturing these solar particles, which can be analysed alongside reactor-produced neutrinos with the data eventually enabling researchers to …
