During the 1920's physicists came to accept the view that matter is built of only two kinds of
elementary particles, electrons and protons, which they often called “negative and positive …

Ever since it was first proposed the neutrino has played a crucial role in the advancement of
our understanding of particle physics. The neutrino was first conjectured by W. Pauli in a …

The neutrino—the mystery and the discovery In the 1920s, physicists were confused: the
phenomenon of β decay (in which an electron is emitted from the atomic nucleus) seemed to …

Neutrinos are perhaps the most enigmatic particles in the universe. These tiny, ghostly
particles are formed by the billions in stars and pass through us constantly, unseen, at …

THE view has recently been put forward1 that a neutral particle of about electronic mass,
and spin ½h (where h= h/2) exists, and that this neutrino is emitted together with an electron …

Neutrinos are the only fundamental fermions that have no electric charge. Because of that
neutrinos have no direct electromagnetic interaction and at relatively small energies they …

The discovery of nonzero neutrino masses is among the most important particle physics
results of the last two decades: It indicates that the Standard Model of particle physics is …

The physics of neutrinos--uncharged elementary particles that are key to hel** us better
understand the nature of our universe--is one of the most exciting frontiers of modern …

Die Neutrinophysik stellt eines der wichtigsten und aktuellsten Teilgebiete der modernen
Teilchenphysik und Teilchenastrophysik dar; zahlreiche Wissenschaftler sind heute in der …
