The compact CosmicWatch detector offers a simple and affordable way to detect cosmic particles—muons—opening up new opportunities for education, scientific research, and monitoring of cosmic phenomena. This device is widely used in universities and professional experiments around the world.
The article discusses a new hypothesis about the early stages of the Universe and the nature of dark matter, which contradicts established scientific data and lacks sufficient justification. Experts point out that this hypothesis does not align with current understanding in physics.
Scientists at Texas A&M University are developing ultra-sensitive detectors to search for dark matter—a mysterious component that makes up most of the universe. These technologies could lead to new discoveries in physics and expand our understanding of how the cosmos is structured.
For the first time, scientists have observed solar neutrinos transforming carbon-13 isotopes into radioactive nitrogen-13, providing direct evidence of their involvement in weak interactions. The experiment was conducted at the underground SNO+ laboratory in Canada.
