New solar opacities, abundances, helioseismology, and neutrino fluxes
read the original abstract
We construct solar models with the newly calculated radiative opacities from the Opacity Project (OP) and recently determined (lower) heavy element abundances. We compare results from the new models with predictions of a series of models that use OPAL radiative opacities, older determinations of the surface heavy element abundances, and refinements of nuclear reaction rates. For all the variations we consider, solar models that are constructed with the newer and lower heavy element abundances advocated by Asplund et al. (2005) disagree by much more than the estimated measuring errors with helioseismological determinations of the depth of the solar convective zone, the surface helium composition, the internal sound speeds, and the density profile. Using the new OP radiative opacities, the ratio of the 8B neutrino flux calculated with the older and larger heavy element abundances (or with the newer and lower heavy element abundances) to the total neutrino flux measured by the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory is 1.09 (0.87) with a 9% experimental uncertainty and a 16% theoretical uncertainty, 1 sigma errors.

Comparative Periodogram Analysis of 22 Years of Super-Kamiokande Solar $^{8}\mathrm{B}$ Neutrino Data: Classical, Phase-Based, and Information Theoretic Methods
Nine periodogram methods on 22 years of SK 8B data show the ~38.8 d signal is early-era only, reject ~24 d as seasonal, and limit any 11-year modulation to <0.2% of mean flux.

The chemical make-up of the Sun: A 2020 vision
Revised solar photospheric abundances yield Z/X = 0.0187 with C, N, O at 8.46, 7.83, 8.69, preserving the solar modeling discrepancy and revealing a modest volatile-refractory offset from CI chondrites.
