Neutrino Factory
A Neutrino Factory is a specialized research facility designed to produce large quantities of neutrinos, which are tiny, nearly massless particles that interact very weakly with matter. These factories accelerate particles, often protons, to high speeds and smash them into targets, creating pions that quickly decay into neutrinos. Scientists use Neutrino Factories to study neutrinos' properties and behavior, which can help us understand fundamental aspects of the universe, including the nature of matter and the forces that govern it. Their research may also lead to advancements in particle physics and a deeper understanding of cosmic phenomena.
