The joint NOvA-T2K analysis achieved unprecedented precision in measuring neutrino mass, a key step toward understanding ...

An experiment nearly two decades in the making has finally unveiled its measurements of the mass of the universe’s most abundant matter particle: the neutrino. The neutrino could be the weirdest ...

Nuclear physicists may have finally pinpointed where in the proton a large fraction of its mass resides. A recent experiment has revealed the radius of the proton's mass that is generated by the ...

For decades scientists have tried to find a way to measure the mass of the lightest matter particle known to exist. Three new approaches now have a chance to succeed. In 1980, Hamish Robertson was a ...

Neutrino mass measurements remain one of the most challenging endeavours in contemporary physics. Direct measurement techniques, particularly those probing the endpoint of the tritium β-decay spectrum ...

Physicist Björn Lehnert from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory talks to Richard Blaustein about what a new precise measurement of the neutrino means for particle physics Weighty matters: ...

Diana Parno’s head swam when she first stepped inside the enormous, metallic vessel of the experiment KATRIN. Within the house-sized, oblong structure, everything was symmetrical, clean and blindingly ...

Researchers have found that bone and muscle mass are regulated by the altered gravity. The experiments were done in space using Kibo, an ISS module developed by JAXA, and on the ground. An ...

Scientists are investigating the elusive neutrino with a new experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Scientists used the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the LHC at CERN (the French ...

NEWPORT NEWS, VA – Nuclear physicists may have finally pinpointed where in the proton a large fraction of its mass resides. A recent experiment carried out at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Thomas ...
