Halo effective field theory constrains the solar 7Be + p → 8B + γ rate
We report an improved low-energy extrapolation of the cross section for the process Be7(p,γ)B8, which determines the 8B neutrino flux from the Sun. Our extrapolant is derived from Halo Effective Field Theory (EFT) at next-to-leading order. We apply Bayesian methods to determine the EFT parameters an...
