- This publication describes the first simultaneous analysis of all neutrinos produced in the proton-proton nuclear reaction chain occurring in the Sun. These results explain why the Sun shines and will be, for a long time, the state-of-the-art in solar physics. Given the importance of these results, the Collaboration decided to perform two independent analyses. Matteo Agostini led the development of one of them, including the implementation of the software tools and the definition of the analysis procedures. Together with his students, he also evaluated the systematic uncertainties and performed the statistical analysis for model testing.
