Chasing the Ghost Neutrino: The Sterile Neutrino Quest
About this episode
We dive into the hunt for a hypothetical fourth neutrino flavor—sterile neutrinos—and how they could solve the neutrino mass puzzle via the seesaw mechanism, with a potential link to dark matter. From KATRIN and MicroBooNE to future big detectors like DUNE, we review the latest results, why they matter, and how scientists are pushing beyond the Standard Model in a truly global search.
