Neutrinos are elementary particles that are predicted to be massless by the standard model of particle physics, yet their ...

Lead was filled with discovery on Saturday, as the Sanford Underground Research Facility hosted Neutrino Day, the annual free ...

Neutrinos are cosmic tricksters, paradoxically hardly there but lethal to stars significantly more massive than the sun.

“Neutrino Day is a celebration of all things science hosted by the Sanford Underground Research Facility and the community of Lead,” SURF Media Relations Manager Mike Ray said. “It’s a city-wide ...

Scientists have never directly detected dark matter, but some wonder if one high-energy detection in 2023 could be a rare indirect glimpse at it.

The KATRIN experiment (short for Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino experiment) is no ordinary setup. It uses a highly radioactive gas called tritium, which undergoes beta decay, spitting out an electron and ...

ANITA was placed in Antarctica because there is little chance of interference from other signals. To capture the emission ...

The science festival is hosted by the Sanford Underground Research Facility and is one of the largest festivals in South Dakota ...

IceCube neutrino analysis pegs possible galactic source for cosmic rays Physicists re-analyzed 10 years of data and found a tantalizing excess of 79 neutrinos.

One of those experiments, Project 8, a long-term collaboration of international scientists including Yale researchers, just proved the viability of a new method to measure neutrino mass. Physicists ...

Nearly a decade ago, a detector searching for ghostly cosmic particles found two anomalous signals in Antarctic ice. But scientists haven’t been able to find anything similar.

The general idea is that νSI should have affected the nature of the neutrino pulse that was detected here on Earth. However, in the decades following the event, physicists have struggled to calculate ...
