Koshiba's work paved the way for findings in what ongoing issue in neutrino physics?
Neutrino speed
Neutrino spin
Neutrino mass
Solar neutrino problem
Answer
The solar neutrino problem, solved through the work of Masatoshi Koshiba, arose from the discrepancy between the predicted and observed flux of neutrinos emitted from the Sun. This discrepancy hinted at the existence of neutrino oscillations, a phenomenon where neutrinos change flavor as they travel. The discovery of neutrino oscillations revolutionized our understanding of neutrino physics and particle physics as a whole.
