Critical review of the results of the Homestake solar neutrino experiment

2002 
The radiochemical experiment in the Homestake mine was designed to measure the solar neutrino flux through the detection of $^{37}Ar$ produced in the reaction $\nu_e + ^{37}Cl \longrightarrow e^-+^{37}Ar$. The comparison between this measurement and the theoretical predictions from solar models evidences a substantial disagreement. I reanalyzed the data evidencing a bias with high statistical significance and suggesting a new interpretation of the data.
