"Breakthrough: Neutrinos Detected from Particle Accelerator at Large Hadron Collider"

TL;DR Summary
For the first time, neutrinos produced from nuclear reactions triggered by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have been detected, marking a breakthrough in particle physics. Neutrinos are elusive particles that are difficult to capture due to their weak interaction with other matter. The discovery could help scientists gain insights into subatomic particle behavior and resolve unanswered questions in the field. Two independent teams used different approaches to detect the neutrinos, with the FASER collaboration observing 153 detections and the SND@LHC collaboration observing eight candidate events.
