John N. Bahcall (1934–2005) was a prominent American astrophysicist known for his significant contributions to the fields of solar and particle astrophysics. He was particularly recognized for his influential work on the solar neutrino problem, which involved studying the neutrinos produced by nuclear reactions in the Sun's core and their detection on Earth. Bahcall's theoretical predictions about the number of neutrinos expected to be detected were crucial for understanding the processes occurring in the Sun.
