China turns on giant neutrino detector

More than a decade after construction began, China has commenced operation of what it claims is the world's most sensitive neutrino detector. Neutrinos are subatomic particles that have no charge and therefore pass through most matter without leaving any sign of their passing. Physics can't fully explain neutrinos, so scientists are interested in observing them more often to learn more about how they behave.
