The explanation for some strange experimental results could lie in undiscovered particles called sterile neutrinos.
On the road to the world’s largest neutrino detector, take the “DUNE Buggy.”
A possible explanation for the lightness of neutrinos could help answer some big questions about the universe.
Physicists are using one of the oldest laws of nature to find the mass of the elusive neutrino.
The United States and the European physics laboratory have formally agreed to partner on continued LHC research, upcoming neutrino research and a future collider.
Scientists don’t yet know what dark matter is made of, but they are full of ideas.
Matter and antimatter behave differently. Scientists hope that investigating how might someday explain why we exist.
The MicroBooNE collaboration announced that it has seen its first neutrinos in the experiment’s newly built detector.
Deep in the dense core of a black hole, protons and electrons are squeezed together to form neutrons, sending ghostly particles called neutrinos streaming out. Matter falls inward. In the textbook case, matter rebounds and erupts, leaving a neutron star. But sometimes, the supernova fails, and there’s no explosion; instead, a black hole is born. Scientists hope to use neutrino experiments to watch a black hole form.
Ghostlike subatomic particles called neutrinos could hold clues to some of the greatest scientific questions about our universe: What extragalactic events create ultra-high-energy cosmic rays? What happened in the first seconds following the big bang? What is dark matter made of?
