Why does the Universe exist instead of having been annihilated shortly after its birth? This fundamental question in physics ...

Neutrino oscillations, a quantum phenomenon in which neutrinos change their flavour during propagation, have long intrigued physicists due to their role in elucidating the mass hierarchy and ...

A joint effort between two of the world’s largest neutrino experiments has brought scientists closer to understanding how the universe survived its violent beginnings. The findings could reveal why ...

A decade-long investigation into puzzling neutrino behavior has now ruled out one of the most widely discussed explanations: ...

Neutrino physics remains a pivotal area in the quest to unravel fundamental aspects of particle behaviour and the evolution of the universe. Neutrinos—elusive, nearly massless particles—are known to ...

The KATRIN experiment has searched with unprecedented precision for signs of a fourth type of neutrino, that could reveal new physics beyond the Standard Model. No signal was found, tightening the ...

After a decade of painstaking measurements, scientists have delivered a major plot twist in particle physics: a ...

Neutrinos are tiny elementary particles. These particles, which come in three flavors, have the unusual ability to periodically change their flavor from one to another via neutrino oscillations.

The American Physical Society has named William & Mary physicist Patricia Vahle a 2020 APS Fellow. Vahle, a professor in the university’s Department of Physics, was nominated by the APS Division of ...

(Boston) — A team of nearly 100 physicists from around the world have achieved results verifying that the elementary particle known as the neutrino exhibits a distinctive pattern of oscillation. This ...

Neutrinos are low-mass subatomic particles with zero electric charge that interact with matter only via the weak nuclear force and gravity. This makes neutrinos difficult to detect, despite the fact ...
