The JUNO (Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory) experiment is a gigantic liquid scintillator neutrino detector, built in southern China, with a size of 20,000 tons, whose primary goal is to ...

But only in the last 70 years have we known for certain they were there. In 1956, physicists Clyde Cowan and Frederick Reines ...

Advancements in glass scintillator materials, coupled with rising investments in radiation detection infrastructure, are further propelling market expansion. The integration of these scintillators ...

In an article published in 2002 in the journal Physics Letters B, my Ph.D. student Maurizio Piai (now Professor of Physics at Swansea University, Swansea, UK) and I proposed an experiment with reactor ...

Scientists at Fermilab’s MicroBooNE experiment have ruled out the existence of the elusive sterile neutrino, a particle proposed for decades to explain puzzling neutrino behavior. Their high-precision ...

Far below the surface, a massive neutrino detector is doing what was once thought impossible. Built over nearly two decades, the experiment is already shaking the foundations of particle physics.

Here’s what you'll learn when you read this story: The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is on the hunt to determine the mass ordering of neutrino flavors, and its first results show ...

After years of searching, scientists at the Micro Booster Neutrino Experiment (MicroBooNE) have ruled out the possibility of the existence of a sterile neutrino, a hypothetical particle that had long ...

The manipulation of metals as they transform from a liquid to a solid can have immense benefits for technologies. A new study finds that the manipulation of stationary atoms in a liquid metal can ...

Thousands of meters underground, in the chthonic depths of Earth's crust, scientists have at long last caught solar neutrinos in the act of transforming carbon-13 into nitrogen-13. It's the first time ...
