Observatory Buried Under Antarctica Spots Seven Potential ‘Ghost Particles’

Fri, 03/15/2024 - 16:45

Researchers working on data from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory buried deep in Antarctic ice think they may have spotted tau neutrinos, a certain flavor of the subatomic particles from space. The seven candidate signals appeared in 9.7 years of observatory data, a testament to just how elusive these little particles…
