The patterns can be used to map out the distribution of mass thereby more accurately defining cosmologically important properties like the masses of neutrinos tiny elementary particles prevalent throughout the cosmos.

##Shifty#neutrinos hint at antimatter mystery Boston University Duke university Stony Brook University University of Pittsburgh University of Rochester University of Washington Posted by Leonor Sierra-Rochester

#In 1998 the discovery of neutrino oscillation in the atmospheric neutrinos by the Super-Kamiokande experiment led us to a new journey into the fascinating and mysterious world of neutrinos

whether or not it would be feasible to explore CP violation in neutrinos. CP violation has only been observed in another type of particle quarks (for

which Nobel prizes were awarded in 1980 and 2008) never in neutrinos. The observed type of neutrino oscillation is sensitive to CP violation

and the T2k experiment will try to observe this process in neutrinos over coming years.

It could be that the asymmetry between matter and antimatter lies with neutrinos which is why observing CP violation in neutrinos would be exciting Manly adds.#

#Our goal now is to push to better understand the errors in the measurements and continue to collect sufficient data to explore this possible CP violation.#

Manly explains that neutrinos are notoriously difficult to study and the oscillation that the researchers seek can be mimicked by other processes.

The neutrino beam is monitored by a detector complex in Tokai and aimed at the gigantic Super-Kamiokande underground detector in Kamioka near the west coast of Japan 295 kilometers (185 miles) away from Tokai.

An analysis of the data from the Super-Kamiokande detector associated with the neutrino beam time from J-PARC reveals that there are more electron neutrinos (a total of 28 events) than would be expected (4. 6 events) without this new process.

The map even shows that the number of neutrino flavours permeating the cosmos will probably remain at three#had there been a fourth,
