Neutrinos are very mysterious particles,” says Damien Dornic, one of the co-authors of a new paper published February 12 in ...

This makes them useful for inferring altitude and depth. How does CosmicWatch detect these muons? The working components of the detector consist of a plastic scintillator, a silicon ...

In fact, by detecting muons you can get an idea of the shape of underground structures, known as muon tomography. "Like X-rays, which can penetrate the body and allow bone imaging, these ...

Alex Keshavarzi digs into the showdown between two competing Standard Model predictions of the muon, which may reveal undiscovered particles hiding in the vacuum ...

The neutrino observatory KM3Net is located in the depths of the Mediterranean Sea and measures a cosmic neutrino at the ...

Although still under construction, the sea-floor KM3NeT detector spotted a neutrino 20 times more powerful than any ...

Generated when high-energy particles in space strike the atmosphere above Earth, muons have been used to monitor magma movement in a volcano, detect empty cavities in the Great Pyramid of Giza ...

Researchers capture highest energy neutrinos, shedding light on cosmic mysteries International team unveils groundbreaking ...

Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detectors, introduced by Prof. Fabio Sauli in 1997, have become essential tracking devices in high-energy physics experiments.

The neutrino observatory KM3Net is located in the depths of the Mediterranean Sea and measures a cosmic neutrino at the ...
