He, coleader Atsuto Suzuki of Tohoku University in Sendai, Japan, and their colleagues spent more than 2 years looking for telltale flickers in the Kamioka Liquid Scintillator Antineutrino Detector (KamLAND)--a tough, transparent balloon filled with 1,000 tons of baby oil, benzene, and fluorescent chemicals. Now, an international team working at an antineutrino detector in Japan reports that it has observed a particle shortfall that it attributes to this subatomic morphing act. When a neutron decays in an unstable nucleus, the particle transforms into a proton, while an electron and an antineutrino flee the scene. |
