ABSTRACT

166We report new GALLEX solar neutrino results from 15 runs covering 406 days (live time) within the exposure period 19 August 1992-13 October 1993 (“GALLEX II”). With counting data considered until 4 January 1994, the new result is [78± 13 (stat.) ± 5 (syst.)] SNU (1σ). It confirms our previous result for the 15 initial runs (‘‘GALLEX I”) of [81 ± 17 (stat.) ±9 (syst.)] SNU. After two years of recording the solar neutrino flux with the GALLEX detector, the combined result from 30 solar runs (GALLEX I + GALLEX II) is [79±10 (stat.) ±6 (syst.)] SNU (1er). In addition, 19 “blank” runs gave the expected null result. GALLEX neutrino experiments are continuing.
