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

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

Although the building blocks of life such as hydrogen and oxygen appear stable to us, many theories of physics predict that they are actually just tremendously long-lived, with the particles found in ...

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 ...

India’s relationship with mathematics has shaped the very framework of global science. The formalization of zero gave civilization a new way to think about the infinite and the void. Centuries later, ...

The IceCube neutrino telescope at the South Pole detected a single high-energy neutrino in September 2017. Several gamma-ray, x-ray and radio telescopes were used to find its source for the first time ...

In February 2023, a cosmic particle detector housed deep in the Mediterranean Sea recorded the arrival of a neutrino with approximately 20 to 30 times more energy than any other neutrino documented ...

The United States plans to breed thousands of sterile flies in a southern Texas factory in an effort to protect American cattle from flesh-eating maggots in Mexico. The New World screwworm is a ...

Frank Paul Calaprice, an emeritus professor of physics, died on June 30, days before his 86th birthday. Over the past 55 years, Calaprice’s research, discoveries, global collaborations, mentorship and ...

To successfully navigate this area, you'll want a good light source. I'd recommend making the Makeshift Headlamp at least, so you can keep your path illuminated as you swim without worrying about ...

AUSTIN, Texas — The city of Austin plans to use a type of fish to help get rid of an invasive plant. According to the city's Watershed Protection Department, roughly 350 sterile grass carp will be ...
