The most compelling clue came from the discovery of neutrino oscillations in 1998. This concept revealed three types of neutrinos (muon, tau, and electron neutrino), and as these particles travel ...

Credit: Markus Breig, KIT Scientists from the KATRIN experiment have achieved the most precise upper limit ever recorded for the mass of the mysterious neutrino – clocking in at less than 0.45 ...

Based in Karlsruhe, Germany, KATRIN studies an antimatter version of neutrino known as an electron antineutrino. The researchers observed radioactive decays of tritium, a heavy variety of hydrogen.

Researchers from the KATRIN (Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino) experiment report the most precise measurement of the upper mass limit of the neutrino to date, establishing it as 0.45 electron volts (eV ...

It is no heavier than 0.45 electron volts (eV) — less than one-millionth the mass of an electron, the next-lightest known particle at 511,000 eV. The results were described on 10 April in Science 1.

Add a description, image, and links to the collision-cross-section topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.

ALICE is the heavy-ion experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The experiment continuously took data during the first physics campaign of the machine from fall 2009 until early 2013, using ...

"The probability (per unit area) of a nucleus capturing a neutron at a given kinetic energy is called neutron-capture cross section," Thanos Stamatopoulos, first author of the paper, told Phys.org.

In 1974 he proposed an experiment in a new field for him: neutrino-electron scattering, a fundamental but extremely rare phenomenon known from a handful of events seen in Gargamelle. To distinguish ...

The workshop will also feature a discussion session on contributions to the European Strategy for Particle Physics (ESPP), aiming to develop a white paper that underscores Europe's commitment to ...
