A recent Physical Review Letters publication presents a thorough analysis of MicroBooNE detector data, investigating the anomalous surplus of neutrino-like events detected by the preceding MiniBooNE ...

Located 700 meters underground near the city of Jiangmen in southern China, a giant sphere—35 meters in diameter and filled with more than 20,000 tons of liquid—has just started a mission that will ...

Neutrinos are one of the most enigmatic particles in the standard model. The main reason is that they're so hard to detect. Despite the fact that 400 trillion of them created in the sun are passing ...

MIT physicists have proposed a way to make a super sci-fi-sounding device: a neutrino 'laser,' which could help us probe the mysteries of the Universe. Neutrinos are the most abundant particles that ...

The highest energy neutrino ever detected from space may finally have an origin story. Mathematical analyses suggest that the ghost particle could’ve come from a theoretical object known as a ...

When two neutron stars collide, they unleash some of the most powerful forces in the universe, creating ripples in spacetime, showers of radiation, and even the building blocks of gold and platinum.

Cool and creative Building a superradiant neutrino laser would be a significant challenge. (Courtesy: iStock/Vitacops) Radioactive atoms in a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) could form a “superradiant ...

A neutrino sensor array, ARCA, lines the Mediterranean seafloor near Sicily. A physicist took ARCA’s first huge win to a warm audience at the Neutrino 2024 conference. The highly energetic neutrino ...

ALBANY — Congresswoman Elise M. Stefanik is critical to the state Republican Party’s goals this year and next; she’s working to fundraise for candidates this year, is helping to coordinate state level ...

Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument The system is mounted on the US National Science Foundation’s Nicholas U Mayall Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory in ...
