Title: Neutrino Physics
Neutrinos, often called 'nature's ghosts', are among the most difficult
fundamental particles to detect and study.
This seminar will describe how scientists in the 1920s and 30s became convinced of
the existence of these ghosts, how they were first detected, and how they continue
to impact our understanding of the universe today.
