This process was predicted 43 years ago but had never been observed. ## Links - DOI: https://doi.org/10.1126/science.aao0990 - Semantic Scholar: https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Observation-of-coherent-elastic-neutrino-nucleus/Akimov-Albert/2017 - PDF: https://arxiv.org/abs/1708.01294 - JSON API: https://science-database.com/api/v1/technology/neutrino-energy --- Generated by science-database.com — The Knowledge Interface Paper ID: curated-ne-06 | Hub: neutrino-energy
