[en] The LENS experiments will measure energy resolved sub-MeV solar electron-neutrinos (νe) in real time via inverse β-transition populating an isomeric state in the daughter nuclei. The subsequent de-excitation provides a delayed coincidence tag which discriminates against background. A liquid scintillation detector loaded with 20 t of Yb would yield an event rate of 190 pp- and 175 7Be neutrinos per year. Essential information on neutrino mixing and masses can be derived.
