PREDICTION OF SOLAR FLARES USING NEUTRINO DETECTORS OF THE SECOND GENERATION

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a physics-based method of prediction high-energy solar flares (SFs) with the help of neutrino detectors utilizing coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEνNS). The behavior of neutrino beams passing through coupled sunspots (CSs) being the sources of future SFs is investigated. We consider the evolution of left-handed electron neutrino νeL and muon neutrino νμL beams formed in the convective zone after the passage of the Micheev – Smirnov – Wolfenstein resonance. It is assumed that the neutrinos possess the charge radius, the magnetic and anapole moments while the CS magnetic field is vortex, nonhomogeneous and has twisting. Estimations of the weakening of the neutrino beams after traversing the resonant layers are given. It is shown that for SFs this weakening could be registered by neutrino detectors of the second generation only when neutrinos have the Dirac nature.
