The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) was a heavy water Cerenkov detector that had the unique ability to measure both the total il active flux of solar neutrino, using a neutral current (NC) interaction, and the flux of electron neutrinos, using a charged current (CC) interaction. The experiment has demonstrated that neutrinos 3 change flavour and that the total neutrino flux is consistent with the prediction of solar models.
