Announcing the First Results from Daya Bay: Discovery of a New Kind of Neutrino Transformation
March 8, 2012Multinational Collaboration Includes Faculty and Students at Illinois Institute of Technology. The Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment, a multinational collaboration operating in the south of China, today reported the first results of its search for the last, most elusive piece of a longstanding puzzle: how is it that neutrinos can appear to vanish as they travel? The surprising answer opens a gateway to a new understanding of fundamental physics and may eventually solve the riddle of why there is far more ordinary matter than antimatter in the universe today.
