Scientists Rule Out Elusive Sterile Neutrino After 10-Year Hunt, Shaking Particle Physics
After ten years of experiments, physicists found no evidence for the sterile neutrino, once thought to explain unusual neutrino behaviour. The MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab analysed neutrinos from two beams and ruled out the particle with 95% certainty. The findings narrow the search for new physics and inform future experiments like DUNE.

Scientists Observe Solar Neutrinos Altering Matter for the First Time
Scientists have directly observed solar neutrinos altering matter for the first time, confirming a decades-old prediction in particle physics. This landmark result provides the lowest-energy measurement of a neutrino–nucleus interaction ever recorded and opens a powerful new way to study elusive neutrinos, nuclear reactions, and the inner working...

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...

X-Ray Nebula Discovery Brings Astronomers Closer to Solving Cosmic Ray Mystery
A new study has linked an unexplained LHAASO detection to a pulsar-powered X-ray nebula, confirming it as a rare PeVatron capable of accelerating particles to extreme energies. The discovery is a major step toward solving the long-standing mystery of galactic cosmic rays. Researchers are now combining X-ray, gamma-ray and neutrino observations to t...

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 ...

Ghostly Neutrinos May Hold the Answer to Why Matter Exists in Our Universe
In a breakthrough study, scientists merged data from Japan’s T2K and the U.S. NOvA neutrino experiments to explore why matter exists in the universe. The findings improve measurements of neutrino behavior and may help reveal whether these particles break symmetry with antimatter, offering vital clues to how the universe survived after the Big Ban...

Study Suggests Primordial Black Hole Burst as Source of Detected High-Energy Neutrino
A groundbreaking MIT study suggests that a primordial black hole explosion may have produced the most energetic neutrino ever detected. Researchers argue that as these ancient black holes shrink through Hawking radiation, they eventually explode, sending out powerful particles.

AMoRE Experiment Sets New Benchmark in Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Research
The AMoRE experiment has made significant progress in refining the limits of neutrinoless double beta decay using molybdenum-100. While AMoRE-I set a new upper limit on the decay halflife, no clear signal was observed. The next phase, AMoRE-II, is being developed at Yemilab with enhanced detection systems to further explore this rare nuclear proces...

Scientists Detects Most Energetic Neutrino Ever in the Mediterranean Sea
A record-breaking neutrino with 220 quadrillion electron volts has been detected in the Mediterranean Sea. Captured by the KM3NeT deep-sea telescope, this rare cosmic event could be linked to powerful astrophysical phenomena such as black holes or supernovae. Neutrinos, nearly massless particles that rarely interact with matter, provide crucial ins...

Compact Neutrino Detector Successfully Identifies Antineutrinos at Nuclear Reactor
A new study reveals that a small neutrino detector, weighing less than three kilograms, has successfully detected antineutrinos at the Leibstadt Nuclear Power Plant in Switzerland. Over a 119-day experiment, the device recorded around 400 antineutrinos, matching theoretical predictions. Researchers believe this breakthrough could enhance nuclear mo...

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...
