Neutrinos are all but impossible to detect and it is thought that they may have mass. If they are found to have mass, they would be the epitome of dark matter.

What are the three particles in the lepton family?

They aren't 3 they are in fact 12 if you count anti matter as a separate particle from matter. Electron, muon, tau, electron neutrino, muon neutrino and tau neutrino. The same apply to anti matter positron, anti muon, anti tau, postrin neutrino, anti muon neutrino, and anti tau neutrino.


What is an axino?

An axino is a hypothetical elementary particle, the fermionic partner of the axion, and a candidate for the composition of dark matter.


Are atoms the smallest particles of matter?

No. The smallest particle of matter appears to be the electron neutrino, with a mass somewhat less than 2.2 eV. Even the electron, at 511 eV, is massive, compared to the neutrino.


What is one kind of particle that is a strong candidate for dark matter?

The only particle that we have observed that may be a candidate are neutrinos. Several experiments are being conducted at the southern polar ice cap to see if this is a possibility or not.


What is anti-neutrino?

An antineutrino is the antimatter counterpart to a neutrino. It has no electric charge, very low mass, and interacts very weakly with matter. Antineutrinos are produced in nuclear reactions, such as in the Sun or nuclear reactors.

What is a dark matter microscope used for?

A dark matter microscope is used to indirectly detect and study dark matter by analyzing the impact it has on the distribution of visible matter in space. By observing the gravitational effects of dark matter on visible matter, scientists can infer the presence and properties of dark matter particles.
