This initiative is in turn driven by my frustration with the status quo, namely the notion of dark matter’s existence despite ...

The Massbox LALI-TOF-MS offers rapid, high-sensitivity elemental characterization, streamlining analysis of innovative ...

Four University of Manchester colleagues have been honoured by the Royal Society of Chemistry for their outstanding ...

Recent advancements in g-C3N4 photocatalysts enhance H2O2 production and pollutant degradation under visible light through ...

A force that couples electrons and neutrons could be an addition to the Standard Model, and a new study places an upper limit ...

This position that a free electron cannot absorb a photon is correct if the photon is assumed to have an identically vanishing mass as is the case in contemporary physics. We herein argue ...

Researchers from the Max-Planck-Institut fuer Kernphysik present new experimental and theoretical results for the bound electron g-factor in lithium-like tin, which has a much higher nuclear ...

The KATRIN experiment began operations in 2019. It seeks to constrain the neutrino’s mass by looking at the energy spectrum of electrons and electron antineutrinos emitted by decaying tritium, a ...

With the current data from the KATRIN experiment, an upper limit of 0.45 electron volt/c 2 (corresponding to 8 x 10 -37 kilograms) could be derived for the neutrino mass.

For context, that’s less than one-millionth the mass of an electron, which clocks in at a comparatively gargantuan 511,000 eV. So, yeah—neutrinos are ridiculously lightweight.

The neutrino’s mass limits the maximum energy the electron can have. Using measurements of a whopping 36 million electrons, the researchers looked for that subtle effect of the antineutrino’s ...
