petrushka.googol Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Neutrinos are known to pass through us at all time. Did they originate at the big bang? And are they still being generated? Do they co-relate with CMBR? Please advise. Thanks in advance.
swansont Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Neutrinos are produced in stars, as part of the fusion process.
Sensei Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 And are they still being generated? Beta decay- and beta decay+ of radioactive element is the most common way neutrinos are produced on Earth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_decay Double decay is one of neutrino-less nuclear transmutations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_beta_decay
mathematic Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 There are ongoing experiments observing solar neutrinos. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_neutrino_problem
