1Neutrino — For other uses, see Neutrino (disambiguation). Neutrino/Antineutrino The first use of a hydrogen bubble chamber to detect neutrinos, on November 13, 1970. A neutrino hit a proton in a hydrogen atom. The collision occurred at the point where three …

7Neutrino decoupling — In Big Bang cosmology, neutrino decoupling refers to the epoch at which neutrinos ceased interacting with baryonic matter, and thereby ceased influencing the dynamics of the universe at early times.[1] Prior to decoupling, neutrinos were in… …

9Solar neutrino problem — The solar neutrino problem was a major discrepancy between measurements of the numbers of neutrinos flowing through the earth and theoretical models of the solar interior, lasting from the mid 1960s to about 2002. The discrepancy has since been… …
10OPERA neutrino anomaly — The OPERA neutrino anomaly is the detection of apparently faster than light neutrinos by the OPERA experiment in September 2011. The detection is anomalous because speeds exceeding that of light in a vacuum are generally thought to violate… …
