A tiny neutrino detector scored big at a nuclear reactor
SMRTR summary
A compact neutrino detector weighing less than 3 kg successfully detected antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor in Switzerland, a significant breakthrough in particle physics. The device captured about 400 antineutrinos over 119 days, potentially enabling new ways to test physics theories, study atomic nuclei, and monitor nuclear reactors for weapons development activities.
