The Big Bang created equal amounts of matter and antimatter. So, why is there so much more matter than antimatter in the Universe? Irfu is participating in the preparation of Hyper-Kamiokande, ...

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 ...

Everything we see around us, from the ground beneath our feet to the most remote galaxies, is made of matter. For scientists, that has long posed a problem: According to physicists’ best current ...

The search for sterile neutrinos at ORNL's PROSPECT-I has not found evidence, placing limits on their likelihood and mass.

To help solve their mysteries, a new neutrino detector in China recently started collecting ... the types change from one to another—i.e. what is the frequency of their oscillation. Understanding how ...

The PROSPECT detector at Oak Ridge National Laboratory's High Flux Isotope Reactor performed precise antineutrino ...

We previously covered one such “gravity telescope” with the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). Another one is the Japanese project Kamioka Gravitational Wave Detector (KAGRA).

Located in China, Juno is a 17-country collaboration that will try to detect neutrinos and antineutrinos to learn more about their mass.

( Nanowerk News) By applying a versatile mathematical technique to black holes, RIKEN cosmologists have uncovered new ...

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 ...
