CERN scientists announced that they managed to record the neutrinos produced in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for the first time. The new discovery was made in the summer of last year, after the transition to the Run 3 stage, when the installation was brought to its maximum energy level of 13.6 TeV after a three-year hiatus for modernization.

Neutrinos born directly in the VAK were captured using the FASER detector designed to look for light and extremely weak interactions. We will remind you that neutrinos are particles that interact extremely weakly with matter, so detecting them is extremely difficult. More than 10 passes per second from each person^11th neutrino

Scientists have been able to detect neutrinos for quite some time, but for this they use special large detectors located deep in the ground. In VAK this particle was recorded for the first time. Experts point out that the neutrino formation mechanism and the energy of the center of mass in VAK are the same as very high-energy neutrinos formed when cosmic rays collide with the atmosphere.
