On one end, near Chicago, a particle accelerator at Fermilab will generate an intense neutrino beam pointed precisely ...

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

Countless neutrinos fly through you every second! Neutrinos, a category of leptons, have no electric charge and do not feel the strong interactions that bind the quarks into protons and neutrons.

The Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) long-baseline neutrino experiment measures neutrino oscillations over a baseline of 295 km using a ...

Throughout school and in any physics class, students are told that nothing travels faster than the speed of light. However, that statement might no longer be true because of the neutrino—the particle ...

Physicists soon will be closer than ever to answering fundamental questions about the origins of the universe by learning more about its tiniest particles. University of Cincinnati Professor ...

The Super-Kamiokande neutrino detector is a physics experiment the size of a 15-storey building, buried under a mountain in Japan. Neutrinos are sub-atomic particles that pass through us all the ...

Neutrinos are the least understood of the currently known elementary particles. They have a nearly negligible mass and they rarely interact, yet they are extremely abundant and have had a significant ...

Neutrinos are very weakly interacting, so in order to acquire a good neutrino data sample, you need both an intense neutrino source, to maximise the number of neutrinos, and a very large detector, to ...

Neutrinos are the most ubiquitous particles — a hundred billion zip through your fingertip each second — yet they have no charge, almost no mass, and they barely interact with other matter. A century ...
