Les neutrinos et leur importance en astrophysique

Les neutrinos et leur importance en astrophysique

EN BREF Les neutrinos sont des particules subatomiques presque sans masse. Ils n’ont pas de charge électrique, rendant leur identification complexe. Ils agissent comme messagers des phénomènes cosmiques. Les neutrinos proviennent d’événements énergétiques tels que les supernovae. Ils permettent une meilleure compréhension des phénomènes astrophysiques. Ces particules sont plus abondantes que la matière noire. L’astronomie … Read more
