Neutrino observatories

ID: neutrino-observatories

Neutrino observatories are scientific facilities designed to detect and study neutrinos, which are nearly massless subatomic particles that interact very weakly with matter. Neutrinos are produced in a variety of processes, including nuclear reactions in stars (like the Sun), supernovae, cosmic ray interactions, and radioactive decay. These observatories are often located deep underground or under large bodies of water to shield them from other forms of radiation and cosmic rays that could interfere with neutrino detection.
