Abstract
The solar neutrino problem can be solved if the sun has accreted a sufficient number of weakly interacting particles from the dark matter of the galaxy. Dark matter particles with mass and cross-sections in a small range are required. It is an interesting problem of model building to give concrete particle candidates for these particles. We present it as an example of the deep interconnection of astrophysics and particle physics necessary to deal with dark matter candidates.
