A first international experiment of its kind has confirmed the theory of particle physics that there is no evidence for the existence of a fourth neutrino

  • No comments
The experiment, with the participation of nearly 200 physicists from different countries, was conducted at the Fermilab National Laboratory in the United States. The team of experts from Israel included two research groups, Dr. Adi Ashkenazi and Prof. Eli Pisatsky from the School of Physics and Astronomy at Tel Aviv University
