Since these signals are correlated, the ones already observed can be used to reduce the uncertainty in the still undetected ones. Here we define a simple setup that uses the Fermi-LAT and HAWC observations to imply very definite fluxes of neutrons and neutrinos from the solar disk. In particular, we provide a fit of the neutrino flux at 10 GeV–10 TeV that includes its dependence on the zenith angle and on the period of the solar cycle. This flux represents a neutrino floor in indirect dark matter searches. We show that in some benchmark models the current bounds on the dark matter–nucleon cross section push the solar signal below this neutrino floor.}, organization = {Spanish Government}, organization = {Junta de Andalucia PID2019-107844GB-C21/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 FQM 101 P18-FR-5057}, publisher = {American Astronomical Society}, title = {The Solar Disk at High Energies}, doi = {10.3847/1538-4357/aca020}, author = {Gutiérrez González, Miguel and Masip Mellado, Manuel and Muñoz, Sergio}, }
