Neutrino mass measurements remain one of the most challenging endeavours in contemporary physics. Direct measurement techniques, particularly those probing the endpoint of the tritium β-decay spectrum ...

In a Physical Review Letters study, the HOLMES collaboration has achieved the most stringent upper bound on the effective ...

An elongation versus departure from axial symmetry (triaxiality) plot showing distinctive differences in the shapes of the parent (germanium-76, “rigid”) and daughter (selenium-76, “soft”) nuclei for ...

Deep under a mountain in Italy, researchers continue to push the boundaries of science with an experiment that could rewrite ...

For the first time, scientists observe a new and rare decay mode where oxygen-13 breaks into three helium nuclei and a proton following beta decay. Scientists have previously observed interesting ...

Scientists analyzed each element of the neutrino mass matrix belonging to leptons and showed theoretically that the intergenerational mixing of lepton flavors is large. Furthermore, by using the ...

Scientists at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory have used 60,000 neutrinos to create the first map of the Milky Way made with matter and not light. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...

The Final Jeopardy round on October 17, 2025, presented a tough challenge for the contestants. The clue was in the category, 20th Century Science. Clue: Calling it “a particle that cannot be detected” ...

A neutrino sensor array, ARCA, lines the Mediterranean seafloor near Sicily. A physicist took ARCA’s first huge win to a warm audience at the Neutrino 2024 conference. The highly energetic neutrino ...
