Video: Visualizing the Nucleus: Mysteries of the Neutrino
Physicists Rolf Ent from Jefferson Lab, and Richard Milner and Lindley Winslow from MIT, together with animator James LaPlante from Sputnik Animation, have created a 6 minute video that illustrates the important role neutrinos play in atomic nuclei and the cosmos. The video follows up on earlier work, showing how animations can depict the role of neutrinos in common nuclear processes and in the formation of the cosmos after the Big Bang.
Note
that's a lot of years for the half life of a nutrinoless double beta decay...
exciting to think about how such an observation may lead to more ideas about how the universe ended up with matter as opposed to complete anti particle fueled annihilation!
