Unit 2 Bacall. J. (2004). Solving the mystery of the missing neutrinos. Nobel Foundation Here are some cue questions for you to start What is a neutrino? What scientific observations led to its prediction? Studying neutrinos helped to explain how our Sun works but led to changes in theories of particle physics. How is this process consistent with the scientific process? How can details about a theory be adjusted without undermining other discoveries made through the theory s predictions? Explain how the theory of neutrino oscillations helps to explain the missing electron neutrinos from the Sun.

Explanation / Answer

Neutrino is a sub-atomic particle with zero charge and mass.

Fermi is the first person to give the clue about neutrino which explaing the decay of proton to neutron and positron. This process is possible only when the proton gains the neutrino. while explaining the decay of electron-positron particles into a gamma ray phton also its existences has been verified.
