A new underground facility called DUNE, which will accelerate particles for 800 miles between Illinois and South Dakota, ...

Kajita, working at the Super-Kamiokande neutrino detector just outside of Tokyo, Japan, discovered that the detector caught some muon neutrinos coming from the atmosphere above and some from the other ...

Neutrinos are a weird little particle. There are three known types: electron neutrino, muon neutrino, and tau neutrino. These ...

Neutrinos are known to come in three flavors: electron neutrino, muon neutrino, and tau neutrino. JUNO researchers are looking to rank the three distinct particles by their mass, solving one of ...

Abe at al. (T2K Collaboration) "First measurement of the muon neutrino charged current single pion production cross section on water with the T2K near detector," Phys.Rev.D 95,1, 012010 (2017) ...

A massive £238 million detector is all set to uncover some mind-boggling mysteries of the universe. The detector in Kaiping, ...

Apart from quarks, we have six leptons: electron, muon, tau and their corresponding neutrinos, electron neutrino, muon neutrino, and tau neutrino. One of the main differences between quarks and ...

Now we know that neutrinos are not massless, and that the three flavours mix so that a neutrino produced as electron type can subsequently interact as muon or tau type. We do not know for sure that ...

In our roundup of 2024's top science stories, we feature particle physics research to two-billion-year-old rocks that yielded live microbes.

A muon will typically produce a clean ... any nucleons ejected from the nucleus with which the neutrino interacted will not be detected, since the T2K neutrino beam energy peaks at about 600 MeV. This ...

Neutrinos come in three flavour states (electron, muon and tau), and since the 1990s we have known that a neutrino can change flavour as it travels. This astonishing phenomenon is due to quantum ...
