Aren’t neutrinos very small? They might have a tough time looking for the giant ones.
Joking aside, it’s good to see progress like this, hopefully they share their findings openly.
That smile is going to be wiped right off your face when China actually finds a giant neutrino
sigh time to rewrites the standard model of quantum physics again…
“I only want your biggest, burliest neutrinos!”
“You can’t handle my neutrinos, traveller!”
Trump turns off a completed wind farm while China completes decade long research platform. We are watching the seismic shift of technological progress from east to west in realtime.
Very impressive. 👍 😀
I wonder what the physicists will learn from it?I read this in the voice of Todd from Project Farm
Any idea of what they are looking into? I always thought neutron detectors were for detection of nuclear activity.
Here are some neat neutrino facts:
- Neutrinos are incredibly difficult to detect.
- There are many neutrino sources, although supernovae may be the most prevalent with 99% of energy released as neutrinos vs 1% as visible light.
- Our sun radiates about 2% of its energy as neutrinos.
- They travel at the speed of light and rarely interact with normal matter. So rarely, in fact, that 99.99% of neutrinos would pass through a 10km-thick slab of lead.
- Most neutrinos pass through the entire earth without hitting a thing.
- 1021 nuetrinos pass through each 1" x 1" area of your body per second and, on average, you have a 25% lifetime chance of interaction with a neutrino particle.
Who knows what will be discovered!
RFK Jr announces that the environmental hazard causing autism is being hit by a neutrino while in the womb!
These are neutrino detectors, not neutron, so they won’t be looking for nuclear activity with it, right?
Nuclear reactions do involve neutrinos and antineutrinos but they aren’t super important for fission so I am assuming the decade long detector would be for something else
No sorry, I have to wait for the video. 😋
How to lock photons into their particle state and then manipulate them.
Are they going to find out they’ve mutated again?
