I’m thinking we’d need new physics discoveries. Maybe elements from the island of stability might help. Or something with superconductors. You never know.

- adrianN 9y agoIf new physics are allowed then it's simple. We just need a Neutrino detector that fits in a phone and doesn't need too much electricity.
- kobeya 9y agoThat would require a phone made out of something other than matter.
- pvg 9y agoGiven that these things are neutral and effortlessly fly out of collapsing supernova cores, heavier elements and superconductors are not very likely to help.
- netheril96 9y agoBy our current understanding, superconductors only exist under extreme cold, a condition never occurring naturally in stars and supernovas. So the fact that neutrinos fly out effortlessly does not preclude the possibility of a superconducting trap of neutrinos.
- scentoni 9y agoThere is nothing about a superconductor that would trap a neutrino.
