neutrino Usage Examples
Converse of object
- emit: The fusion processes at the heart of Sun emit neutrinos of the electron variety.
- detect: Despite being very difficult to detect the neutrino was observed in the 1960s.
- produce: Remember that the tau decays to produce two neutrinos in addition to the muon.
- call: In the process of fusing hydrogen to form helium, the nuclear reactions also produce elementary particles called neutrinos.
Adjective modifier
- solar: Experiments into solar neutrinos finds a surprising deficit in the number produced.
- atmospheric: The lecture covers the topics: the Solar neutrino problem, atmospheric neutrinos, neutrino oscillations, neutrino mass and Majorana neutrinos.
- high: The implications for high energy neutrino, gamma ray and cosmic ray production in GRB and AGN jets are discussed.
- many: Just out of curiosity, look up how many neutrino 's we survive from passing through our body from the Sun every second!
- massive: One chapter provides a self-contained introduction to weak interaction phenomenology, including massive neutrinos of both Dirac and Majorana type.
Modifies a noun
- oscillation: Explain how both of these problems could be resolved by possible neutrino oscillations.
- flux: And, no, a sub's neutrino flux is not strong enough to give away its position.
- detector: Indeed, dedicated neutrino detectors struggle just to record a handful of incoming neutrinos from potent nearby sources like the sun.
- telescope: Scientific Impact A new window into the Universe opens with the advent of high energy neutrino telescopes.
- physic: The site also has an essay describing the history of neutrino physics.
- astronomy: Neutrino astronomy could be said to have been born.
Noun used with modifier
- muon: Currenly has the best limit on electron neutrino to muon neutrino oscillations.
- tau: An example of this would be a tau neutrino with considerable mass.
- high-energy: Development of techniques for detection of high-energy neutrinos from outer space.
- electron: Of these, only the neutrino has been proved to exist and the electron neutrino, at least, has little or no mass.
- energy: Scientific Impact A new window into the Universe opens with the advent of high energy neutrino telescopes.
