Abstract: (Elsevier)
The Homestake solar neutrino experiment has observed the solar neutrino flux from 1970 to the present time. During this 24 year period an apparent variation in the neutrino flux that inversely correlates with the solar activity cycle was observed. In the course of these observations two special experiments were performed to search for an enhanced signal from supernova 1987A and from an intense flare-solar mass loss event of 4 June 1991. Neutrinos were not observed from supernova 1987A, but a strong signal was observed from the 4 June 1991 solar event. The data from the Homestake experiment were analyzed by many independent investigators to search for correlations with various solar phenomena. These studies will be summarized and reviewed.- review: experimental results
