Abstract:
Results from the Measurement of the Total Active 8B Solar Neutrino Flux
at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) with Enhanced Neutral Current
Sensitivity are presented. Good agreement with the pure D2O phase is
obtained. The differences in the two detector configurations will be
discussed, from the point of view of extracting the neutrino signal. An
update of the detector status will be given. Finally, opportunities for
underground, low count rate and low background experiments in the newly
funded SNOLAB facility in Sudbury will be highlighted.
