Other scientists had previously suggested that this isotope would be a good candidate for studying electron capture as an analog to measuring neutrino mass. In electron capture, the heavier ...

A muon neutrino produces a muon, an electron neutrino produces an electron, and a tau neutrino produces a tau. Neutrinos with a muon flavor have the most distinctive signature, so my colleagues ...

New experiments on thallium decay have helped determine the Sun formed over 10–20 million years, improving stellar ...

So far, IceCube, whose construction was completed over 10 years ago, has enabled significant advancements in cosmic-neutrino physics, including the first observation of the Glashow resonance, wherein ...

New data from the NOvA experiment at Fermilab in the US contain no evidence for so-called “sterile” neutrinos, in line with ...

At the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory in Ontario, Canada, McDonald encountered a similar oddity. The lab was measuring the electron neutrinos that come directly from the sun, but the captured number of ...

The Super-Kamiokande and T2K Collaborations present a joint measurement of neutrino oscillation parameters from their atmospheric and beam neutrino data. It uses a common interaction model for ...

These neutrino oscillation parameters are fundamental physical constants in the same way that the mass and charge of the electron are fundamental. Neutrino research, because of the scale, cost and ...

Neutrinos come in three flavour states (electron, muon and tau), and since the 1990s we have known that a neutrino can change flavour as it travels. This astonishing phenomenon is due to quantum ...

Abe at al. (T2K Collaboration) "First measurement of the muon neutrino charged current single pion production cross section on water with the T2K near detector," Phys.Rev.D 95,1, 012010 (2017) ...

The short-lived \(W^{-}\) boson decays, forming an electron (charge =\(-1\)) and an electron neutrino (charge = 0). The proton, electron, and the antineutrino move away from one another emitting ...

This characteristic can be utilized in information processing to create qubits. Single-electron qubits are highly regarded as a technology for scaling quantum computing due to their excellent ...
