Dear students
Take a look at the poem by John Updike. It is about Neutrinos.
In 1930, physicist Wolfgang Pauli hypothesized a new, unseen particle called the neutrino in order to account for the missing component of energy in certain experiments on radioactivity that seemed to violate the conservation of matter and energy.
Pauli admitted, " I have committed the ultimate sin, I have predicted the existence of a particle that can never be observed".
