What else can I help you with?
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 the charge of a neutrino?
The charge of a neutrino is neutral, meaning it has no electric charge.
is there anything lighter than photon?
No, photons are considered to be massless and travel at the speed of light, making them the lightest known particles.
What is an antineutrino and how does it differ from a neutrino?
An antineutrino is a subatomic particle that is the antimatter counterpart of a neutrino. The main difference between an antineutrino and a neutrino is their electric charge - neutrinos have no charge, while antineutrinos have a negative charge.
How was the Solar neutrino problem solved?
The problem was that the Sun should output a lot more electron neutrinos then were measured. This meant that the model describing the interior of the Sun would be wrong, but it was working very well in predicting other things. It was finally solved when something called neutrino oscillation was discovered. It turned out that (this might be a bit technical) the interaction state of a neutrino was not equal to its mass or propagation state. In short, this meant that electron neutrino's could become muon or tau neutrino's after a while (and change back again after that). After this people began looking for muon and tau neutrinos coming from the Sun and together with the electron neutrino number they added up to the amount the Solar model predicted. The problem was thus solved; the Sun DOES output more electron neutrino's but some of these change into muon or tau neutrinos before they reach the Earth, and since we were initially only looking for electron neutrinos we missed some.
How fast can a neutrino go?
up to 1,00,000,00,23443225 mph i think
What is an antielectron neutrino?
An antielectron neutrino is an antileptonic elementary particle - the antiparticle of an electron neutrino.
What is an antimuon neutrino?
An antimuon neutrino is an antileptonic elementary particle which is the antiparticle of a muon neutrino.
What is faster than a neutrino?
A photon. Neutrinos have mass and therefore must travel at less than the speed of light. Photons of light travel at the speed of light.
How do neutrinos differ from photon?
A photon is a unit of light and has a mass of 0 where is a Neutrino has a small but nonzero mass. Neutrino's are similar to electrons in most regards, except neutrino's have no charge. Where photon's travel at the speed of light neutrino's come close but do not.
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.
When would a neutrino telescope see evidence of an abrupt change in the energy source in the Sun's interior?
The speed of neutrinos is not known, but it is assumed to be close to the speed of light. Thus, it would take about 8 minutes for a neutrino to travel from our sun to earth.
When was Tau neutrino created?
Tau neutrino was created in 2000.
When was Electron neutrino created?
Electron neutrino was created in 1956.
What is the charge of a neutrino?
The charge of a neutrino is neutral, meaning it has no electric charge.
What can travel at speed of light?
Any massless "thing" like a photon and MAYBE a neutrino. NOTHING with mass can travel at the speed of light. Photons travel at the speed of light. The entire electromagnetic spectrum travels at the speed of light.
Some fast do light rays travel?
Yes, they travel some fast!
