  1. Neutrino - Wikipedia

    A neutrino (/ njuːˈtriːnoʊ / new-TREE-noh; denoted by the Greek letter ν) is an elementary particle that interacts via the weak interaction and gravity. [2][3] The neutrino is so named because it is …

  2. DOE Explains...Neutrinos | Department of Energy

    The neutrino is perhaps the best-named particle in the Standard Model of Particle Physics: it is tiny, neutral, and weighs so little that no one has been able to measure its mass. Neutrinos are the most …

  3. Neutrino | Particle Physics, Properties & Detection | Britannica

    Dec 6, 2025 · Neutrino, elementary subatomic particle with no electric charge, very little mass, and 12 unit of spin. Neutrinos belong to the family of particles called leptons, which are not subject to the …

  4. What’s a neutrino? | All Things Neutrino - Fermilab

    Physicist Enrico Fermi popularized the name “neutrino”, which is Italian for “little neutral one.” Neutrinos are denoted by the Greek symbol ν, or nu (pronounced “new”). But not all neutrinos are the same. …

  5. The Role of Neutrinos in Understanding the Universe

    Apr 2, 2025 · Neutrinos are elementary particles that belong to the family of leptons, which also includes electrons, muons, and taus. Unlike other particles, neutrinos have no electric charge and interact …

  6. Neutrinos - Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare

    Neutrinos are neutral and extremely light subatomic particles, which weakly interact with matter. For this reason, detecting them is a very complex experimental challenge. Wolfgang Pauli proposed the …

  7. Neutrino Physics

    Some elementary particles, such as the electron, are relatively well understood, while others, such as the elusive neutrino, present the physics community with many unanswered questions.

  8. What is a neutrino? - Scientific American

    Sep 7, 1999 · A neutrino is a subatomic particle that is very similar to an electron, but has no electrical charge and a very small mass, which might even be zero.

  9. Neutrino - Wikiwand

    A neutrino (/ njuːˈtriːnoʊ / new-TREE-noh; denoted by the Greek letter ν) is an elementary particle that interacts via the weak interaction and gravity. [2][3] The neutrino is so named because it is …

  10. What Is a Neutrino? Neutrino Facts - Science Notes and Projects

    Jul 13, 2022 · A neutrino is a subatomic particle and also an elementary or fundamental particle. In other words, it is smaller than an atom and does not consist of smaller subunits. It is a fermion, which is a …
