About eighty-five percent of the matter in the cosmos emits neither light nor any other known kind of radiation as far as is known, and…
Led by the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a new study clears up a discrepancy regarding the biggest contributor of unwanted background signals…
The Borexino experiment research team has succeeded in detecting neutrinos from the sun’s second fusion process, the Carbon Nitrogen Oxygen cycle (CNO cycle) for the…
Next Step in Simulating the Universe Researchers led by the University of Tsukuba devise a new approach to show how ghost-like neutrinos helped shape the…
A hyper-sensitive instrument, deep underground in Italy, has finally succeeded at the nearly impossible task of detecting CNO neutrinos (tiny particles pointing to the presence…
The effect that nearly massless, subatomic particles called neutrinos have on the formation of galaxies has long been a cosmological mystery—one that physicists have sought…
The Borexino collaboration, in which also scientists from TU Dresden are involved, has succeeded after more than 80 years in experimentally confirming the Bethe-Weizsäcker cycle….
Neutrinos Yield First Experimental Evidence of Catalyzed Fusion Dominant in Many Stars An international team of about 100 scientists of the Borexino Collaboration, including particle…
The neutrino is perhaps the best-named particle in the Standard Model of Particle Physics: it is tiny, neutral, and weighs so little that no one has been…
Exotic subatomic particles, sterile neutrinos, are no-shows in experiments, increasing doubts about their existence. University of Cincinnati physicists, as part of an international research team,…
Berkeley Lab researchers are part of an international team that reports a high-sensitivity measurement by underground CUPID-Mo experiment. Nuclear physicists affiliated with the U.S. Department…
Excess neutrinos and missing gamma rays? Coronae of supermassive black holes may be the hidden sources of mysterious cosmic neutrinos seen on Earth. The origin…
A recent study on ‘pre-supernova’ neutrinos—tiny cosmic particles that are extremely hard to detect—has brought scientists one step closer to understanding what happens to stars…
It started with a blast. On June 23, construction company Kiewit Alberici Joint Venture set off explosives 3,650 feet beneath the surface in Lead, South…
Scientists remain perplexed by the activity, with some 40 papers so far giving wildly different answers. A new research paper co-authored by a Virginia Tech…
