(Phys.org) —What will soon be the most powerful neutrino detector in the United States has recorded its first three-dimensional images of particles. http://phys.org/news283691479.html Physics Thu, 28 Mar 2013 12:11:26 EST news283691479 Although it's invisible, dark matter accounts for at least 80 percent of the matter in the universe. No one knows what it is, but most scientists would bet on weakly interacting massive particles, or WIMPs. http://phys.org/news256998676.html Physics Wed, 23 May 2012 13:31:51 EST news256998676 Last month, the preparations for the assembly of the NOvA neutrino detector passed a pivotal test in an assembly building at the Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. http://phys.org/news242984572.html Physics Tue, 13 Dec 2011 07:43:15 EST news242984572 At a once defunct Navy facility in Rhode Island, Brookhaven scientists working on the proposed Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE) have set up a death trap for the key components of the project’s future neutrino catchers. http://phys.org/news217582630.html Physics Tue, 22 Feb 2011 07:50:07 EST news217582630 (PhysOrg.com) -- The Double Chooz collaboration recently completed its neutrino detector which will see anti-neutrinos coming from the Chooz nuclear power plant in the French Ardennes. The experiment is now ready to start collecting data in order to measure fundamental neutrino properties with important consequences for particle and astro-particle physics. http://phys.org/news215282820.html Physics Wed, 26 Jan 2011 16:47:57 EST news215282820 The National Science Foundation has signed a five-year, $34.5-million agreement with the University of Wisconsin-Madison to operate a unique telescope--a cubic kilometer in volume--buried in the Antarctic ice sheet between 1,400 meters and 2,400 meters deep. http://phys.org/news209726186.html Physics Tue, 23 Nov 2010 09:16:45 EST news209726186 (PhysOrg.com) -- Using a delicate instrument located under a mountain in central Italy, two University of Massachusetts Amherst physicists are measuring some of the faintest and rarest particles ever detected, geo-neutrinos, with the greatest precision yet achieved. The data reveal, for the first time, a well defined signal, above background noise, of the extremely rare geo-neutrino particle from deep within Earth. http://phys.org/news188837054.html Physics Fri, 26 Mar 2010 15:45:22 EST news188837054 (PhysOrg.com) -- A consortium led by UC Davis physics professor Robert Svoboda will design the world's largest neutrino detector under a $4.4 million contract recently awarded by the National Science Foundation. http://phys.org/news174731920.html Physics Wed, 14 Oct 2009 09:49:21 EST news174731920
