Neutrino What is neutrino ? A neutrino is an electrically neutral‚ weakly interacting elementary subatomic particle with a half-integer spin‚ chirality and a disputed but small non-zero mass. It is able to pass through ordinary matter almost unaffected. The neutrino (meaning "small neutral one") is denoted by the Greek letter ν (nu). Neutrinos are similar to the more familiar electron‚ with one crucial difference: neutrinos do not carry electric charge‚ which means that they are not affected by
