Undergrad What Are Neutrinos and Why Are They Important?
Thank you jtbell Another question on the topic of neutrinos... I have a feeling this a stupid question but I couldn't find it elsewhere so please don't jump all over me for asking... Where exactly are neutrinos? Are they independent particles that travel through the universe? I can't imagine...- D4rthV4D3r

Graduate Annihilation of Matter/Antimatter
When anti matter and matter come into contact do they only annihilate each other leaving everything else undisturbed? Or does the resulting energy destroy/tear apart nearby particles? The reason I ask, assuming that the result is the former, if antimatter were to be harnessed could...- D4rthV4D3r

Undergrad What Are Neutrinos and Why Are They Important?
ok, thank you that helps a lot. so if I take my result of -1.39471 X 10^-30 and make it positive (the mass needed to make the P+E=N) then plug it into E=mc^2... E = (1.39471 X 10^-30) X (299,792,458)^2 E = 4.18123539 X 10^-22 (what unit goes here? Newtons? joules?) so the answer above...- D4rthV4D3r

Undergrad What Are Neutrinos and Why Are They Important?
I posted this question on Yahoo Answers and got no responses than I found this site and figured it would be more reliable... I am no physicist but I have been reading up on particle physics for fun lately and have come across something i do not understand. We know that the mass of a...- D4rthV4D3r
