Abstract

Solar neutrino measurements from 1258 days of data from the Super-Kamiokande detector are presented. The measurements are based on recoil electrons in the energy range 5.0--20.0 MeV. The measured solar neutrino flux is 2.32\ifmmode±\else\textpm\fi0.03(stat)_\ensuremath-0.07+0.08(syst)\ifmmode×\else\texttimes\fi106cm^\ensuremath-2s^\ensuremath-1, which is 45.1\ifmmode±\else\textpm\fi0.5(stat)_\ensuremath-1.4+1.6(syst)% of that predicted by the BP2000 SSM. The day vs night flux asymmetry (\ensuremathΦn\ensuremath-\ensuremathΦd)/\ensuremathΦaverage is 0.033\ifmmode±\else\textpm\fi0.022(stat)_\ensuremath-0.012+0.013(syst). The recoil electron energy spectrum is consistent with no spectral distortion. For the hep neutrino flux, we set a 90% C.L. upper limit of 40\ifmmode×\else\texttimes\fi103cm^\ensuremath-2s^\ensuremath-1, which is 4.3 times the BP2000 SSM prediction.
