To date, the least energetic neutrinos ever detected belong to the solar pp chain, with energies above 100 keV. Yet, the Sun is expected to produce an even lower-energy population of neutrinos, generated by pair-production processes in the solar plasma. These solar thermal neutrinos populate the eV-keV energy range, well below the energies probed by existing neutrino experiments.
