Recent solar neutrino experiments have confirmed the suspicion that the explanation for the apparent shortfall in neutrino detection rates over the last 30 years is that:
A) the Sun does indeed produce only 1/3 of that predicted by earlier theoretical models; these models require major modification.
B) 2/3 of the neutrinos from the Sun are absorbed by material between the Sun and Earth.
C) 2/3 of the solar neutrinos transform into types of neutrinos that were undetectable by old detection techniques.
D) the detectors were faulty; 2/3 of the neutrinos were missed by the detectors.
