An underground detector in China unveils its first major findings about mysterious ghost particles
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) in China released its first major findings, measuring how neutrinos switch between flavors. The detector, located 2,297 feet underground, studies antineutrinos from nearby nuclear plants to understand their mass hierarchy. Initial results show precision in flavor transitions but have not yet resolved the mass order of neutrino types.
