Neutrinos: They have no electric charge, pass through matter like a ghost and are so light they were initially thought to have zero mass. These are just some of the traits that make them so difficult ...

A large neutrino observatory in Japan has been heavily damaged by a freak accident. The Super-Kamiokande Observatory was designed to detect neutrinos by using a vast array of photomultiplier tubes.

A kilometre underground, in the depths of a Japanese mine, scientists have built a tank of ultra-pure water inside a gigantic cylinder full of photomultiplier tubes. This is the Super-Kamiokande ...

Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume. Super-Kamiokande (Super-Kamioka Nucleon Decay Experiment) is a neutrino observatory under Mount Kamioka ...

Super-Kamiokande is the far detector for T2K, but it also has a long and distinguished history as a stand-alone detector of atmospheric and solar neutrinos Members of T2K only have access to Super-K ...

Only three or four supernovas happen in our galaxy every century. These are super-energetic events that release neutrinos at the speed of light. At the Super-Kamiokande detector in Japan, a new ...
