Earth regeneration effect in solar neutrino oscillations: an analytic approach

Abstract

We present a simple and accurate method for computing analytically the regeneration probability of solar neutrinos in the Earth. We apply this method to the calculation of several solar model independent quantities than can be measured by the SuperKamiokande and Sudbury Neutrino Observatory experiments.
