Can we someday produce neutrino? And what makes that particle interesting?



"The first use of a hydrogen bubble chamber to detect neutrinos, on November 13, 1970. A neutrino hit a proton in a hydrogen atom. The collision occurred at the point where three tracks emanate on the right of the photograph". (Wikipedia/Neutrino)

Another name for neutrino is "grey photon" or "dark photon". The neutrino is one of the most interesting elementary particles in the world. A neutrino can tunnel itself through the material without interaction, and it can travel even through planets without losing its speed. 

The neutrino telescopes that are used to research those mystery particles are deep inside the minings that are protecting them against turbulence and artifacts. When a neutrino telescope detects neutrino that happens by searching the blue-light shockwave or Cherenkov's radiation that is released when neutrino hits quarks in water molecules. 

That thing pushes quark forward with a speed that is the same as the speed of light in a vacuum the particle must slow its speed to the speed of light in water. During that process, the neutrino must transfer its energy to water. And that thing causes a blue-light shockwave through that system. 

Modern neutrino detectors use chlorine. But other elementary particles are effective for that purpose. 

When a neutrino hits a chlorine atom it transforms it into an argon atom. Modern neutrino detectors detect one of these kinds of reactions per day. The only known thing that affects neutrinos is the weak interaction. The neutrino has a very small mass. 

And it has no electromagnetic field. That means electromagnetic fields cannot affect neutrino. So the name neutrino comes from neutron. The neutron is very similar to neutrino, but it is not an elementary particle. The spin of both particles is 1/2. And that thing is interesting. The difference between neutrino and neutron is that there are three quarks and gluons that are forming neutron. But the neutrino has no known internal structure. 

Neutrino is a member of the fermion family. The neutral electricity load of the neutrino has sometimes caused discussions that maybe there are other particles inside the neutrino.

If neutrino has poles, there could be a possibility to control them. 

The neutron rays will be made by putting the south pole of the neutron against the magnet. Then another magnet will pull the neutron through the accelerator. 

The system can use a laser beam or photonic tractor beam to put the neutron in the right position. And then the accelerator will pull it through it. Similar way the system could control neutrinos if it has poles.

The air, space, and water are different quantum systems. The speed of light is different in every quantum system. And the reason for that is that in thick quantum systems energy travels from moving objects to their environment faster than in thin quantum systems. But before an object can stop it must transfer its energy to its environment. 

The neutrino is the only known particle that can travel at least almost the speed of light. There was once the measurement error that the neutrino traveled faster than light. The fact is that. If there is a small mass of gas in a particle accelerator. That thing can slow the photon. But it cannot slow neutrino.  

One of the examples is when a photon hits to wall formed of lead. It cannot travel through it. But neutrinos can travel through that wall without resistance. 

This is a good example that all quantum systems don't have a similar effect on all particles.  So, even paper can stop light. But it cannot stop things like neutrons and protons. A neutrino can travel through light-years of lead. 

The reflection and scattering that are affecting photons might not affect neutrino. And that thing is called the virtual crossing of the speed of light. Same way when some particle impacts water with the speed of light in a vacuum crosses the speed of light in water for a short moment. 


***************************************************************


In the future, neutrinos might offer an extreme way to make quantum communication between stars. 


There is the possibility to use neutrino as the qubit. The system would use a nano-tube where is the chlorine atoms. Then the neutrino will shoot at that sensor, and that thing can make it possible to transport energy over a long distance. 

But there is a lot of work to turn this idea into a practical solution. And one of them is how to make sure that the neutrino interacts with chlorine. 

Another solution for the neutrino is the neutrino engine. That system works through superpositioned and entangled neutrinos. The system sends energy to those neutrinos. And they are transforming it into the wave motion that pushes the craft forward. 


********************************************************************


The question is why can neutrinos travel through planets without causing an interaction? The answer for that could be that neutrino is so high-energy particle that simply pushes material away from its way without causing an energy transfer or interaction any other way than hitting straight to quarks or gluons. 

Sun and other stars are forming neutrinos in their nucleus. There the intense heat, powerful magnetic fields, and extreme pressure cause conditions where neutrinos are forming. The total darkness in the nucleus of the stars. This is the reason that intensive wave motion absorbs light. The wave motion that travels in the nucleus of the stars is closing light inside it. And wave-particle duality forms neutrinos.

When neutrino travels in space. There are left little parts of quantum fields that it passes. That means the neutrino that forms in stars is "dirty". Sterile neutrino has not had those marks. And there is the possibility that the neutrino has so powerful energy load that it just pushes quantum fields away from it.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
