Neutrinos' quantum size likely thousands of times larger than atomic nuclei
“By precisely measuring the behavior of lithium atoms produced in the decay of beryllium, we gain direct access to quantum properties of neutrinos—particles that are notoriously difficult to detect,” said Kyle Leach, associate professor in Physics. Leach and Joseph Smolsky, a postdoctoral researcher, published their findings in the Feb. 13 issue of Nature.
