Exploring a $100m Underground Neutrino Detector | Science's Greatest Mysteries | BBC Earth Science

Ғылым және технология

In this vast water-filled cavern, buried 1000m below ground, 10 years of research has yielded fascinating results about the interactions between neutrinos and matter.

    yeah, but they call it a cherenkov tank.. which exists and is also filled with water but is smaller and for a different thing (detecting cherenkov radiation)

    ​@@La_sagne Actually, that's precisely how this works. It's a very large Cherenkov light detector built deep underground away from almost all causes of Cherenkov light, apart from neutrinos.

    it's a very small and very light particle that is very hard to detect because it (almost) doesn't interact with anything since it passes through (almost) everything that's in it's way (including our eyes for example)... if I'm not mistaken they created this chamber (=detector) in such a way that there's a lot of material so that when neutrinos pass through it (by the way countless neutrinos pass through the whole earth and it's elements (including people) constantly and if I recall correctly they come from the sun), as I was saying they created this chamber in such a way that there's a lot of material so that when neutrinos pass through it there's a higher than zero chance they will interact with something (=hit something I guess?) so that they can detect them.... it's like having extremelly small fish flowing down a river and due to you not having a fine enough net you put like 1000 nets back to back hoping a few fish accidentaly get stuck... (I guess a material that's even denser than water would work better than water on this detector but it would be massivelly expensive, while water can be found....well.......in the ocean that covers most of earth surface) don't quote me on all this, those subjects are so complex I probably can't fully comprehend even the hypersimplifications those people give us..
