The neutrino, neutrinos, and sterile neutrino/s keywords, chrono, duplicates out:

A fair amount of physics is wishful thinking. We have string theory, 15 dimensions, dark matter, anti-matter, neutrinos, and the multiverse.

Most seems like “I have no idea what’s going on, but I’ve got a story I made up ...”

Idiots! I could have told them this.

Omygosh. Are you kidding me? You mean not even the science of exoctic subatomic particle sterile neutrinos is settled?

When you get down to the nitty gritty there doesn’t appear to exist conclusive evidence for any particle smaller than an atom. I was as surprised as anyone when I discovered this - every subatomic particle, including electrons, is thought to exist only through mathematical speculation.

So many scientists trying to make a name for themselves with out there theories, trying to be a hero instead of just observing and going where the facts lead.

Well, looks like I’m gonna have to throw all of my post 1985 Star Trek shows in the trash.

I figure in the beginning a huge amount of neutrinos were created. As the universe expanded it slowed them down. Today what we see as dark matter is those neutrinos in orbit around galaxies. This is why I figure after years of fruitless searching they have no found any other candidates for dark matter.

Sterile species tend to die out. Maybe it’s too late to find sterile nutrinos

Very misleading title that infers, at least to me, that neutrinos may not exist.

But the text says no such thing. It tell me that we know of three “flavors” of neutrinos that do exist but the search for a fourth has failed at least so far.

Correct me if I’m wrong. I would really miss my Pet Neutrinos if I had to give them up.

I have no opinion on the neutrino, but it should go without saying that any scientific fact presented today may be proved by future experiment to be incomplete or wrong.

The Letts/Craven effect of generating muons from a material target with a 30 mW, 680 nm laser doesn’t agree with the Standard Model. A member of the Los Alamos National Laboratory research scientists repeated the procedure, obtaining similar findings. The parameters of creating the active material were not understood sufficiently well to reproduce once the batch was exhausted.

Holmlid and Olofson experiments a decade ago have found a route to recreate the muon production, a cascade of particle decay leading to muons created cheaply, in the sense of energy input to produce the muon. Norrønt Fusion Energy AS is furthering exploration into use of these particles to stimulate Deuterium fusion for heat production.

The direct energy extractable from initial meson generation by laser stimulation is relatively small, thus fusion serves to amplify that output.
