The strength of a neutrino 💪
Recently, the FASER Experiment at CERN measured high-energy neutrino interaction strength.
At the annual RencontresdeMoriond conference, the FASER collaboration presented a measurement of the interaction strength of electron neutrinos (νe) and muon
FASER neutrino detection - manga style! 💫
Thanks to AKIMOTO Yuki/秋本祐希🌟HiggsTan(ひっぐすたん) for this amazing illustration!
Also from Physics Magazine, a Viewpoint from Dr. Elizabeth Worcester on the first observation of neutrinos produced by a particle collider, made by the FASER Experiment. Details were published recently in PRL. #physics

Our paper on the first direct observation of collider neutrinos is now published in Physical Review Letters! 🥳
Physicists have detected neutrinos from Earth’s interior, the Sun, nuclear reactors, & distant supernovae. Now the FASER Experiment has seen neutrinos from the LHC CERN. Elizabeth Worcester Brookhaven Lab explains what that means for neutrino physics. physics.aps.org/articles/v16/1…

New neutrino discovery will unlock secrets of the rarest events in the cosmos bigthink.com/hard-science/h… by Don Lincoln
FASER Experiment recently observed the first collider #neutrinos at the #LHC .
The observation had a statistical significance of roughly 16 sigma, far exceeding 5 sigma, the threshold for discovery in #particlephysics .
