The American Physical Society has named William & Mary physicist Patricia Vahle a 2020 APS Fellow. Vahle, a professor in the university’s Department of Physics, was nominated by the APS Division of ...
Laura Munteanu, Mathieu Perrin-Terrin and Stephen Dolan describe how neutrino tagging, proposed in 1979 and demonstrated at ...
Neutrinos are tiny elementary particles. These particles, which come in three flavors, have the unusual ability to periodically change their flavor from one to another via neutrino oscillations.
A dying massive star does not go quietly. Its core collapses, matter crashes inward, neutrinos pour out in staggering numbers ...
With an improved beam and new detectors, the international collaboration T2K has begun to collect more accurate data than ever before for its world leading neutrino oscillation research. Physicists at ...
(Boston) — A team of nearly 100 physicists from around the world have achieved results verifying that the elementary particle known as the neutrino exhibits a distinctive pattern of oscillation. This ...
A new discovery provides a crucial key to understanding how neutrinos — ghostly particles with multiple personalities — change identity and may help shed light on why matter exists in the universe. In ...

The physicists who came to our presentation at the 2010 Neutrino conference in Athens, Greece, probably expected us to put to rest a controversial finding from a decade prior. Instead we left them in ...
