SNO+ Experiment

The SNO+ experiment is a scientific project that studies tiny particles called neutrinos, which are extremely difficult to detect. Located deep underground in Ontario, Canada, it uses a large tank filled with liquid scintillator—a special liquid that produces light when neutrinos interact with it. By detecting these flashes, scientists aim to learn about neutrino properties, their role in the universe, and phenomena like neutrinoless double-beta decay, which could explain why matter dominates over antimatter. Overall, SNO+ seeks to deepen our understanding of fundamental particles and the universe’s origins.
