Antineutrinos colliding with protons generates a bluish light SNO+ Collaboration
Antimatter neutrinos created by a atomic reactor were picked up by a detector located 240 kilometres away. The attack could beryllium utilized to monitor atomic activity from afar.
The beingness is afloat of neutrinos and their antimatter counterparts called antineutrinos. They are commonly produced wrong the prima and successful atomic reactors, but detecting them is hard due to the fact that they typically determination done substance without affecting it. Despite this, Josh Klein astatine the University of Pennsylvania and his colleagues managed to grounds …
