2 days ago · After a decade of construction, the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) ushers in an all-new era of neutrino science.

A neutrino detector is a physics apparatus which is designed to study neutrinos. Because neutrinos only weakly interact with other particles of matter, neutrino detectors must be very large to detect a …

Aug 6, 2025 · A team of scientists has finally caught elusive neutrinos using a compact detector placed near a nuclear reactor.

Mar 15, 2024 · A new type of neutrino detector now being tested in a vast underground lab at the University of California, Berkeley, is designed to leverage the latest technologies to enhance the …

Scientists have taken a major step towards finding elusive types of tiny, 'ghost-like' particles, and potentially new physics. For the first time, neutrinos have been spotted by the Short-Baseline Near …

Nov 10, 2025 · Detecting a neutrino is not a direct observation of the particle itself but rather the measurement of the energetic debris left behind after it collides with an atom. When a neutrino …

Aug 26, 2025 · Deep beneath southern China, JUNO has launched one of the most ambitious neutrino experiments in history. With its massive 20,000-ton liquid scintillator detector now operational, it’s …

IceCube is the first gigaton neutrino detector ever built and was primarily designed to observe neutrinos from the most violent astrophysical sources in our universe.

Jun 25, 2025 · Estimate the number of cosmic rays that would accompany a neutrino in the read out of the detector if it operated at the surface. Recall that at the surface the cosmic ray rate is 200 Hz / m2.

Jul 30, 2025 · Physicists have caught neutrinos from a nuclear reactor using a device weighing just a few kilograms, orders of magnitude less massive than standard neutrino detectors.
