A proposed funding program for small- and medium-scale projects reveals insights into the science, logistical challenges, and ...

Nuclear fission is the most reliable source of antineutrinos, but they are difficult to characterize. A recent study suggests ...

Observations of VFTS 243 provide evidence that black holes can form directly from the collapse of massive stars, without a ...

JUNO will identify the heaviest neutrino type using advanced detectors Located 700m underground, JUNO features a 35m-wide acrylic sphere Antineutrinos from nearby nuclear plants will be key to JUNO's ...

The JUNO experiment, which will study the ways of the electrically neutral subatomic particles, will be the largest of its kind.

A new facility in China will soon begin hunting for ghostly neutrino particles in a spherical particle jail that’s nearly ...

For nearly half a century, Robert D. “Bob” McKeown has probed nuclear particles and educated rising generations of physicists ...

Beneath a granite hill in southern China, a massive detector is nearly complete that will sniff out the mysterious ghost particles lurking around us.

It will soon begin the difficult task of spotting neutrinos: tiny cosmic particles with a mind-bogglingly small mass.

This Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope, or KM3NeT, consists of two telescopes made up of glass baubles arranged on vertical cables. Each strand dangles in the water like a pearl necklace that’s ...
