(Phys.org) -- Scientists from the MINOS experiment at the Department of Energys Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have revealed the worlds most precise measurement of a key parameter that governs the transformation of one type of neutrino to another. The results confirm that neutrinos and their antimatter counterparts, antineutrinos, have similar masses as predicted by most commonly accepted theories that explain how the subatomic world works.
