Most Powerful Neutrino Ever Detected May Have Come From a Blazar
A 220 PeV neutrino detected beneath the Mediterranean Sea may have originated from a distant blazar. Simulations suggest these powerful black hole systems can generate ultra-high-energy ghost particles.

Neutrino Detectors May Unlock the Search for Light Dark Matter, Physicists Say
Physicists now believe that massive neutrino detectors—built to observe rare solar and cosmic particles—could also detect extremely light dark matter that traditional experiments miss. By monitoring subtle annual variations in their background signals, observatories like JUNO and Borexino may open a new frontier in uncovering the universe’s m...

China’s Massive JUNO Experiment Delivers Its First World-Class Neutrino Results
China’s Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory has delivered world-class results after only 59 days of data collection, achieving the most precise measurements yet of two major neutrino oscillation parameters. JUNO’s early performance surpasses all previous experiments, confirming a small but intriguing discrepancy between solar and reactor ...

20,000 Tonnes Under Earth: China Unveils Most Powerful 'Ghost Particle' Tracker
China has launched Juno, the worlds largest and most powerful neutrino detector, to explore mysterious ghost particles. Located deep underground in Guangdong, it will study neutrinos emitted by nearby nuclear power plants, marking a major milestone

JUNO Neutrino Detector Nears Completion, Set to Begin Operations in 2025
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), located 700 metres below ground in China, is set to begin operations in summer 2025. Designed as the world’s largest neutrino detector, JUNO aims to determine the heaviest among the three neutrino types. The core of the detector consists of a 35-metre-wide acrylic sphere containing 20,000 metr...

Inside China's Underground Lab Tasked With Solving A Physics Mystery
A giant sphere 700 m (2,300 ft) underground with thousands of light-detecting tubes will be sealed in a 12-storey cylindrical pool of water in coming months for an experiment that will shine new light on elusive subatomic particles called neutrinos.

First Ever View of the Milky Way Seen Through the Lens of Neutrino Particles
Data collected by an observatory in Antarctica has produced our first view of the Milky Way galaxy through the lens of neutrino particles. It’s the first time we have seen our galaxy “painted” with a particle, rather than in different wavelengths of light. The result, published in Science, provides researchers with a new window on the cosmos.

Analysis of Neutrino That Crashed Into Antarctica Sheds Light on Origin of Cosmic Rays
In a new study, published in Science, researchers have detected a cosmic ray offshoot called a neutrino or ghost particles. These parties are considered so evasive that they interact with anything but as they travel, they don't come in contact with the atoms. Neutrinos are like small particles messengers that have spawned a new field of astronomy c...

Big Industries Will Come Up With 22,000 Job Opportunities: MK Stalin
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin on Thursday said police cases filed during the AIADMK rule against peaceful protesters vis-a-vis projects including the Neutrino Observatory and Koodankulam Nuclear Plant would be withdrawn.

India's Plan to Build Colossal Science Lab in Tamil Nadu Hits Political Roadblock
India hopes to build one of the world's largest basic science laboratories to understand the very fundamental nature of the universe. The Neutrino Observatory (INO), a project worth Rs 1,500 crore is to come up deep inside a cavern in Tamil Nadu. This is one of India's most ambitious scientific projects, but local politics has managed to stall it.
