I believe they intend to get MINOS to use better metrology and redo the experiment whilst OPERA moves on with their original charter (oscillations).
As for supernova neutrinos, they've not yet been detected at high energies per experiments like Antares. Is it possible they only exist at those...
Okay so:
a) How were the 1987 neutrinos detected in the 1st place?
b) If we're talking efficiency, utilizing the accuracy of OPERA, isn't it safe to say this is mostly a tagging and timing issue?
If we can tag low-energy neutrinos (whether produced naturally or artificially) then that means...
The OP posed a question, I proposed a possible answer. It is not a personal theory, merely a thought experiment (as was intended with this thread).
Anyways, the question assumes we as Humans are "God's gift to the Solar system." As if Sol can only have been "found" whilst we Humans were...
I wrote to him once inquiring about a potential appearance at a convention. He wrote me right back :smile:
Nice lil email, of course - he also promoed his new book. hehe
So I figure shore up on the Trigonometry, then Analytical Geometry and Calc. I, Calc. II, then Dif. Eq. (dif E.Q. for all u college people). THEN I can start to specialize? That's where the area gets grey to me (the color grey seems to describe nonlinear math pretty well). Different course...
What's the best study plan to get into nonlinear equations/dynamics, etc. Let's say we start with Calculus... how far should I go?
Differential Equations afterwards?
What's a typical course tracking into such math?
