The neutrino is a notorious troublemaker in the world of particle physics. This tiny, elusive particle with no electric charge likely permeates every corner of the universe, but you’d be hard ...

New research claims that a super-powerful neutrino may have originated from an exploding primordial black hole. Now how long ...

Physicists have placed a new limit on how big the elusive neutrino can be—one of the universe’s smallest known particles—a limit that makes other subatomic particles look as big as black ...

A new estimate of the ghostly particle’s maximum possible mass brings physicists a tad closer to understanding the universe. By Katrina Miller Katrina Miller studied neutrinos in graduate school ...

However, that statement might no longer be true because of the neutrino—the particle that may be able to transcend dimensions that light cannot. The concept of the neutrino is significant to our ...

Physicists have scaled down the maximum possible mass of an elusive "ghost particle" called a neutrino to at least one-millionth the weight of an electron. The revision takes scientists one more ...

This is important because the neutrino, as the most abundant particle in the universe, "weaves a thread that connects the infinitely small and the infinitely large," Thierry Lasserre, a physicist ...

New data establish an upper limit of 0.45 eV/c2 (equivalent to 8 x 10-37 kilograms) for the neutrino mass. KATRIN measures neutrino mass in the laboratory using a model-independent method.

The neutrino is one of the most common particles in the universe, but you would never know it. In fact, it wasn’t until the 1930s that we even became aware of its existence. Noting that certain ...

In a paper published in Nature this week, the scientists in charge of KM3Net discuss how they detected the signature of the most powerful neutrino that science has ever seen. KM3Net is not a ...
