Neutrino Detectors

5 Comments

If it works, it will find the location of every nuclear submarine in the world.

I support science, but that is a lot of very clean fresh water. I can think of many very positive uses for this clean water. Will this new detector more neutrino's on a magnitude scale over the previous detectors, making this project worthwhile?

50k gallons of water really isn't as much as you might think. Who knows how much water a city loses in a single day from leaking pipes. Fire trucks pump out over 1000 gallons a minute.

"Super-Kamiokande started collecting data in 1996 and has since made many important measurements. These include precision measurement of the solar neutrino flux using the elastic scattering interaction, the first very strong evidence for neutrino oscillations, and a considerably more stringent limit on proton decay.

Thanks oao
