... SuperchIorine The proven chlorine solar neutrino detector would benefit from higher count rates, and a 3000-tonne perchloroethylene experiment has been under development in the Baksan underground laboratory in Russia [343. Lithium The most attractive features of a lithium detector are its accurately known absorption cross section and its predominant sensitivity to CNO and Be neutrinos [353.
