Calibration of Solar-Neutrino Detectors with Artificial [sup 51]Cr and [sup 75]Se Neutrino Sources.

The possibility of calibrating the solar-neutrino detectors GNO, BOREXINO, and LENS with the same artificial neutrino source is discussed. For this purpose, the Russian heavy-water reactor L-2 can be used to produce a 10 MCi neutrino source based on the [sup 51]Cr isotope. For the first time, the possibility of producing and using a neutrino source based on the [sup 75]Se isotope is demonstrated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
