Over the next three years, MicroBooNE will search for additional sources of neutrino oscillation beyond those already known. (sciencedaily.com)
The finding would fit nicely with research from the Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search, or MINOS, also at Fermilab, which, the same day, announced subtle differences in the oscillation behaviour of neutrinos and antineutrinos. (newscientist.com)
But in 1998, scientists discovered that neutrinos frequently change from one flavor into another — a process called neutrino oscillation that can only occur if neutrinos do, in fact, have mass. (sciencedaily.com)
