RE: When particle physics met geology with ‘geoneutrinos’

in #steemstem7 years ago

The wording 'geoneutrinos' denote both the neutrinos and antineutrinos that are produced from the decay of the radioactive elements inside Earth. However, there is only a tiny fraction of neutrinos coming from rarer 40K decays. Antineutrinos hence represent more than 99% of all geoneutrinos.
