Is the cost/technology for doing this kind of quick check prohibitive?
I was wondering if the neutrino detector does have to be directed precisely towards cern or it's omnidirectional. Does anyone know?
- ars 15y agoA neutrino detector is omnidirectional. It would be almost impossible to make it directional even if you wanted to. You can try to measure which direction the scattered particles from a neutrino collision travel. But the actual detector is omnidirectional. But all that said, a strong neutrino source isn't easy to just do.
