Neutrino-free process: observing neutrinoless double beta decay could shed light on important mysteries of particle physics. A new technique to enable the detection of a hypothetical process called ...

Double beta decay, one of the rarest nuclear processes, offers a unique portal into the fundamental properties of neutrinos and the conservation of lepton number. Experimental strategies have evolved ...

Researchers have developed a new approach to model a yet-unconfirmed rare nuclear process. The binary code (1, 0) on the particles in the graphic symbolizes the computer simulations which will be ...

Left: “Mirror” nuclei lithium-8 and boron-8 undergo beta decay, then split into two alpha particles. Right: Radioactive ions from the ATLAS accelerator at Argonne National Laboratory are suspended in ...
