Neutrinos are cosmic tricksters, paradoxically hardly there but lethal to stars significantly more massive than the sun.
Neutrinos are elementary particles that are predicted to be massless by the standard model of particle physics, yet their ...
“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 ...
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 ...
The science festival is hosted by the Sanford Underground Research Facility and is one of the largest festivals in South Dakota ...
The IceCube neutrino detector has allowed researchers to resolve a debate about what types of particles make up ...
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.
ANITA was placed in Antarctica because there is little chance of interference from other signals. To capture the emission ...
RAPID CITY, S.D. — The 17th annual Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) Neutrino Day will take place in Lead on Saturday. The day is a celebration of science and the underground lab’s impact ...
Neutrino mass curbs the formation of fine details of the cosmic web. These two computer simulations show the cosmic web with either massless neutrinos (left) or neutrinos with a summed mass of 500 ...
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.
