Their mass is extremely low, but how light are neutrinos really? A collaboration comprising German and international research ...

On the afternoon of November 4, the Ministry of Construction and the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam jointly conducted a ...

For decades, the process of making a surfboard has more or less been the same: cut a piece of foam; put a wooden stringer down the middle to provide structure and strength; shape it, then wrap it in ...

Three years ago, in the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, the passage of an "ultra-energetic" cosmic neutrino was observed—the most energetic ever detected. The event drew international attention from ...

Primordial black holes could rewrite our understanding of dark matter and the early universe. A record-breaking detection at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea has some physicists wondering if we ...

Since the 1990s, physicists have pondered the tantalizing possibility of an exotic fourth type of neutrino, dubbed the “sterile” neutrino, that doesn’t interact with regular matter at all, apart from ...

Neutrinos are fundamental particles that interact rarely with matter and are therefore notoriously difficult to detect. There are three known types of neutrino, but anomalous experimental results have ...

Trillions of neutrinos whiz through our bodies every day, pulsing from the sun, outer space and deep beneath Earth. Yet these elusive subatomic particles have proven difficult to study. That could ...

The results add to physicists’ understanding of neutrinos and validate collaboration between major experiments. The NOνA far detector. Credit: Public domain image from Fermilab. More details here.
