Definitions

1. The tau neutrino was discovered when a beam of neutrinos was fired at a target of iron plates covered in an emulsion.

Tauon Neutrino

1. The tauon neutrino (ν τ), or tau neutrino, is the last of the three neutrinos.

Scientists

1. While scientists have never detected a tau neutrino directly, they believe they have seen the effects of tau neutrinos during experiments.

Experimental

1. So, the favored solution involves oscillation from muon neutrino to tau neutrino and providing experimental evidence that the tau neutrino mass is finite.

Muon

1. Since SNO cannot distinguish between muon and tau neutrino, it is unclear how many tau neutrinos are produced.

Neutrino Physics

1. The new direct evidence for the tau neutrino is far from closing the chapter on neutrino physics.

Neutrinos

1. Then the neutrinos we observe, the electron neutrino, mu neutrino, and tau neutrino, might not be the "true" neutrinos.

Small Mass

1. Like the other neutrinos, the tau neutrino has a very small mass or no mass at all.

Bottom Quark

1. Since then, discoveries of the bottom quark (1977), the top quark (1995) and the tau neutrino (2000) have given credence to the standard model.

Third Type

1. Later, a second type of neutrino, the muon neutrino, was found, and a third type, called the tau neutrino, was discovered in the late 1990s.
2. A third type, the tau neutrino, associated with the tau particle, was identiified in the mid-1970s but not detected until 2000.

Electric Charge

1. The experimental bound on the electric charge of the tau neutrino is many orders of magnitude weaker than that for any other known neutrino.

Tau Lepton

1. Sometimes the tau lepton will decay into a quark, an antiquark, and a tau neutrino.

Tau

1. A tau decays (via a muon-antimuon particle pair complex formed by the W-) to a tau neutrino, a muon antineutrino, and a muon.
2. Scientists believe the tau has an electrically neutral partner called the tau neutrino.
3. In c) and d), tau and positive pion cancel electric charges, releasing the tau neutrino and allowing the positive pion(s) to self-annihilate.

Muon Neutrino

1. The electron, muon and tau particles plus their neutrinos; the electron neutrino, muon neutrino and tau neutrino.
2. There are three types, or " flavours ", of neutrinos: electron neutrino s, muon neutrino s and tau neutrino s.
3. Three types exist: electron neutrino (nu e), muon neutrino (nu mu) and tau neutrino(nu tau).

Electron Neutrino

1. The leptons include the electron, the muon, the tau particle, the electron neutrino, the muon neutrino, and the tau neutrino.
2. The electron neutrino creates an electron, the muon neutrino a muon, and the tau neutrino a tau lepton.
3. Leptons include electrons, muons, tau particles, and their respective neutrinos, the electron neutrino, the muon neutrino, and the tau neutrino.

Tau Neutrino

1. There are six quarks (up, down, charm, strange, top, bottom), and six leptons (electron, electron neutrino, muon, muon neutrino, tau, tau neutrino).
2. There are three flavours of lepton, electronic leptons (electron, electron neutrino), muonic (muon, muon neutrino), and tauonic (tauon, tau neutrino).
3. Leptons: electron, muon, tau, electron neutrino, muon neutrino, tau neutrino.
