#Neutrinos

Dr. Claire Lee 🎃

So glad you asked, this is a really interesting feature of #neutrinos!Neutrinos are weird for a number of reasons. They're fermions (particles of matter), but unlike all the rest of

Ok everyone, what is your favourite "transportation of a science experiment" photo, and why is it this one of KATRIN?The KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment in Germany is working on

I’ll start with the disclaimer that my knowledge of Particle Physics is pretty limited and there are many great threads, blogs, and articles on Twitter and elsewhere from folks who

So apparently, bizarre neutrinos have been found in Antarctica that has baffled researchers that they are even considering a wild theory that there's a parallel universe out there where time

NASA just said the other day ... that a so called parallel universe opened up in Antarctica due to Sub Atomic particles falling from space called “Tau Neutrinos” and these

how did the Universe begin?while we still don’t have a great way to describe the singularity of the Big Bang other than saying *it happened*, we can talk about what

So, the Twittersphere has been buzzing with #axions, #darkmatter, #tritium (or not) and the general excitement coming from the @XENONexperiment. That is totally deserved, and in the thread below I

The sun shines because of fusion. It's in every middle school science book! So scientists must've been 100% sure of this fact for a long time, right?What if I told

Here’s a thread about the fundamental constituents of the universe, as explained by @nattyover, with graphics by Samuel Velasco and @LucyIkkanda. In the 1970s, physicists formed a framework that encapsulates

OK, so, I've seen a lot of the "NASA detects parallel universe" stuff going aroundI've spent the last ~2 years of grad school investigating these detections, and wanted to provide

"Supersymmetry" is a hypothetical symmetry that relates the two kinds of particles in our universe: bosons and fermions. There's no experimental evidence for it.But "superalgebra" is worth studying even if
