      From: heathjohn2@gmail.com              From what I found at Wikipedia the flavor change between e n and t       is evenly distributed in time. This would mean the neutrino will       be a tauon neutrino for 1/3 of it's time. Knowing the energy source       of the neutrino should set a limit on the neutrino velocity. It's       velocity is almost c. Almost c seems unlikely yet my standard model       says 18 MeV. 18 meV would be nice but it says 18 MeV. In my mind       18 MeV for an average of 6 to 7 MeV mass is too high for a velocity       that is so close to c that it is hard to measure. It will be       interesting to see how the neutrino mystery unfolds as more experiments       are done.              [[Mod. note -- As others have noted, neutrino masses are probably       around 1 eV or (much) less -- MeV values are ruled out.       -- jt]]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
