The elusive neutrino – a mysterious subatomic particle that may be a key to the unexplained dark matter of the universe.
The neutrino is a subatomic particle, smaller than a proton and an electron. The neutrino was proposed by Enrico Fermi and his co-workers in 1930-1932 to explain a common nuclear reaction called beta-decay.
Not too long after, Fermi couldn’t get a paper published in Nature because the neutrino concept was too unrealistic, so he switched … More “The elusive neutrino – a mysterious subatomic particle that may be a key to the unexplained dark matter of the universe.”
