CERN Neutrinos to Gran Sasso

The CERN Neutrinos to Gran Sasso (CNGS) project was a physics project of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). The aim of the project was to analyse the hypothesis of neutrino oscillation by directing a beam of neutrinos from CERN's facilities to the detector of the OPERA experiment at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS), located in the Gran Sasso mountain in Italy. The CNGS facility was housed in a tunnel which diverged from one of the SPS–LHC transfer tunnels, at the Franco–Swiss border near Geneva. It used the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) accelerator as a source of high-energy protons. (Wikipedia).

Colloqui della Classe di Scienze: Seeking the true nature of neutrinos: was Ettore Majorana right?

Marco Pallavicini (Università di Genova) - 22 settembre 2021 After almost 100 years since its birth, the neutrino is still the less understood particle of the Standard Model, the established theory of particles and fields. Neutrinos are the most abundant massive particles of the universe (
