Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics (MPIK) have detected antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor using a 3 kg (6.6 lbs) detector. The results were achieved using the CONUS+ ...
Located in China, Juno is a 17-country collaboration that will try to detect neutrinos and antineutrinos to learn more about their mass.
The detector, known as the Jiangmen Underground neutrino Observatory, or JUNO, is located in between two huge nuclear plants at Yangjian and Taishan. Both of those fission plants create their own ...
Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have joined collaborators from around the world to build a prototype neutrino detector that has now captured its ...
Scientists have taken a major step towards finding elusive types of tiny, 'ghost-like' particles, and potentially new physics. For the first time, neutrinos have been spotted by the Short-Baseline ...
“The mass and the antiparticle nature of neutrinos can be studied by measuring the radioactive beta and double-beta decays of ...
A big detector to measure tiny particles The $300 million detector in Kaiping, China, took more than nine years to build. It is located 2,297 feet underground to protect it from pesky cosmic rays and ...
The award, sponsored by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, provides $1.3 million in funding over five years to each of ...
This is mindbogglingly weird. I know that matter can break down into matter and energy - hello nearby nuclear reactor - but I didn't now that energy could couple with energy to create matter. It's ...
Kevin Wood, a Chamberlain Postdoctoral Fellow at Berkeley Lab and run coordinator for the 2×2 prototype and Brooke Russell, now the Neil and Jane Pappalardo Special Fellow in Physics at MIT and the ...
Kaiping, China — Underneath a granite hill in southern China, a massive detector is nearly complete that will sniff out the mysterious ghost particles lurking around us. The Jiangmen Underground ...
