Deep in #Antarctic ice, these particles can answer basic questions about the universe
#IceCube can’t directly see the enigmatic #neutrino #particles, but its thousands of sensors can detect what happens after they interact with matter. When they do, the neutrinos produce charged particles that travel through the ice at nearly the speed of light, creating a blue glow called Cherenkov radiation.

Record-Breaking Neutrino May Be Linked to Exploding Primordial Black Hole

In 2023, scientists observed a neutrino hitting Earth with an energy level far beyond any known natural cosmic source, about 100,000 times greater than the output of the Large Hadron Collider.

Velo Orange Neutrino – New Bike Day

Go small, go simple, go now. Wise words spoken by a sailor of the old days. Still, it applies to everything we do in this life. All told we have been living in tiny Airbnb’s almost exclusively for 4 years. We did have an 8 month stint in a hotel to be close to the boat but it was just too simple for us.

A centimeter here, a few degrees there… this bike is fitting better and better every day. Zero would be the number of complaints I have at this point. I should have a Frame bag made but I just can’t commit to it. Bar bags, saddle bags, feed bags, who knows. I always dive in on day one but with this little Kermie bike I just keep slowing down. The frogs awaking is always the first signal of spring. On my first ride with the new Neutrino they sang their song all along my first creekside ramble. Maybe nature has named her for me.

Here are the Velo Orange Neutrino build specs:

  • Crankset: Microshift Sword Black, 42T
  • Bottom Bracket: VO English Threaded, 113mm
  • Wheels: VO Disc Hubs laced to 20″ Velocity Cliffhanger Rims
  • Tires: Maxxis Holy Roller 20 x 2.2
  • Handlebars: VO Klunker
  • Shifter: Microshift Advent 9 speed
  • Rear Derailleur: Microshift Advent Super Short, 9 speed
  • Cassette: Microshift Advent 11-38, 9 speed
  • Chain: KMC X9
  • Brakes: Growtac Equal, Post Mount
  • Brake Rotors: Promax 160mm
  • Brake Levers: Origin 8 Midi-Trigger 
  • Seatpost: VO 31.6, Medium Setback
  • Saddle: San Marco Selle Sportive
  • Grips: VO Foam, Black 
  • Pedals: Blue Lug Bear Trap Pedal by MKS

I ride every day now, but first I walk. There is something about walking my dog that is so good for the soul. She sniffs and explores every inch of the village like it was her first time. I feel the same way on my bike. It doesn’t matter how many times I’ve ridden down this trail or that. It’s always new and fun to me. Yesterday I saw a Mink. One day I found a snake in a tree, a whole new level of fear was born with that one. Birds of prey are everywhere. If you look often enough you will see whales splashing around and playing just as hard as I do.

I’ve had my little Neutrino for 6 days now. I made 2 videos about her. Each piece has been unfastened, greased and retorqued to proper spec. None of this needed to be done but that’s how I get to know the workings of each new bike. Unlike the Brompton all parts of the Neutrino are standard making this a super easy bike to work on. Now I need to build an apocalypse kit just in case.

Queen’s researchers use geoneutrinos to study Earth’s composition - The Queen's Journal

For centuries, scientists have tried to answer the question, “What’s the Earth made of?” While drilling projects and geological studies have revealed clues about the planet’s crust, the deeper layers remain largely inaccessible.Now, researchers at Queen’s University are turning to an unlikely source of information—subatomic particles known as geoneutrinos—to probe the planet’s interior.The research comes from a Queen’s-led team working with the SNO+ neutrino detector at SNOLAB in Sudbury, Ontario. Located two kilometres underground to shield it from radiation and other interference, the detector is designed to capture faint flashes of light produced when neutrinos interact with a liquid scintillator, a solution of organic compounds that emits light when exposed to radiation, inside a spherical tank.

Wenn Lea Schlickmann von der #UniMainz gefragt wird, wo sie schon überall gearbeitet hat, dann sticht eine Antwort ganz besonders heraus: am #Neutrino-Observatorium #IceCube am #Südpol. Die Mainzer #Physik-Doktorandin hat vor wenigen Wochen das aktuelle IceCube-Upgrade in der #Antarktis mit vorbereitet und u.a. neue Module getestet, die mittlerweile ins kilometerdicke Eis nahe der Amundsen-Scott-Südpolstation eingelassen wurden 👉 https://www.magazin.uni-mainz.de/vom-hoersaal-ins-ewige-eis/
