RE: A: Q: What is the solar neutrino problem and how it was solved?

in #stemq6 years ago

. All the neutrino released in the p-p chain reaction are electron neutrino but there exist mi and tau neutrino in nature as well.

Actually, the second guy is the muon neutrino, not the mi neutrino.

As a side effect, the fact that neutrinos are massive implies physics beyond the Standard Model. Indeed, we need to add extra particles to be able to model neutrino masses. We hope that the LHC will provide some guidance with this respect.

it is also important to keep in mind that neutrino physics is still puzzling. For instance, the MiniBooNE and LSND experiments still report neutrino numbers disagreeing with the theory (see here for more information).

Thanks Lemouth. Most of the times i make these mistakes even with pion as well :p I will fix it :)
Was not aware of the information. Thanks for the help and thank you for visiting my blog :)

The pleasure of reading you is always for me. Even if those days it is hard because of a veryyyyy lagging internet connection (traveling).

Thank you so much :)
