Of the high-energy particles thrown out by cataclysmic astrophysical sources in the universe, such as novas and gamma-ray bursts, only the elusive and weakly interacting neutrinos can be accurately traced to their points of origin. Neutrinos are produced in copious quantities, and their paths are unaffected by magnetic fields as they travel across the millennia at the velocity of light. With the evolution of various technologies since the 1980s, the direct observation of neutrinos is now possible and is of importance in the study of the origin of the universe. New instruments built on...Read full article
