Study shows neutrinos possess m

A team of Japanese and U.S. scientists have found evidence showing for the first time that neutrinos -- tiny, electrically neutral, subatomic particles -- possess mass, contradicting the standard theory of particle physics. The Super-Kamiokande group made the finding by using a 50,000-ton tank (in the photo) of highly purified water located about 1,000 meters underground in the Kamioka Mine in Gifu Prefecture, central Japan. ==Kyodo

    Scientists detect neutrino beam traversing 250 km

    The photo shows a neutrino beam traversing 250 kilometers between the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization facility in Tsukuba, Ibaraki Prefecture, and the Super-Kamiokande detector in the town of Kamioka, Gifu Prefecture. An international team of scientists announced June 28 the detection of the beam's passage. The photos were provided by the University of Tokyo's Institute for Cosmic Ray Research, which led the experiment.
