The purpose of this Rapid Communication is to reanalyze the problem, including all the solar neutrino data available, to discuss the dependence on the statistical criteria in the determination of the C.L. of the ``dark side'' and to extract the corresponding limits on the largest mixing allowed by the data. Our results show that when the Super-Kamiokande data on the zenith angle distribution of events and the spectrum information are included, the regions extend more into the second octant.5 p.application/pdfeng(c) The American Physical Society, 2000Astrofísica nuclearCol·lisions (Física nuclear)Partícules (Física nuclear)Estructura interna de la terraNeutrins solarsNuclear astrophysicsCollisions (Nuclear physics)Particles (Nuclear physics)Earth-Internal structureSolar neutrinosSize of the dark side of the solar neutrino parameter spaceinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article551548info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
