Neutrinos are elementary particles that display extremely feeble interaction with matter. They stem from diverse forms of radioactive decay, such as those taking place within the heart of the sun and in nuclear reactors. Moreover, it's not feasible to obstruct neutrinos; they can easily traverse from a nuclear reactor's core to a remote detector, even capable of piercing the Earth itself.
A major advance in neutrino detection has been made thanks to research by an international team of scientists led by Joshua Klein....
