neutrino<\/a> factory. It is generated in the core through nuclear fusion. Various nuclear reactions occur in the core of the Sun. It is called the proton-proton chain. In this reaction, two protons link and form deuterium, releasing neutrinos and positrons.<\/p>\nThe mass of neutrinos<\/h3>\n
The mass of neutrinos is very bizarre. Even though they are among the lightest particles in the Universe, they are responsible for above 20% of the total mass of the observable Universe. The physicist Wolfgang Pauli put forward pioneering theories on neutrinos. At first, he thought them to be massless. As new theories were developed, they were assigned a small discrete mass. The upper threshold of neutrino mass is 0.086 Ev, about six million times less heavy than an electron.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
In the observable Universe, the matter is made up of molecules. These are themselves made of much smaller particles called atoms. Electrons, protons and neutrons are the fundamental building blocks of atoms. Apart from these particles, there are many other particles that make up the entire ecosystem of the standard model. Neutrinos are subatomic particles […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":54,"featured_media":2040,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[77],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2033"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/54"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2033"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2033\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2038,"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2033\/revisions\/2038"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2033"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.todayreels.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
