Key Stage 5
Meaning
An electron-neutrino (νe) is a type of neutrino with the flavour of an electron.
About Electron-neutrinos
- The electron-neutrino is denoted with the Greek letter ν ('nu') with the subscript e.
- Electron-neutrinos are fundamental particles as they are not made of any smaller particles.
- The electron-neutrino has negligible mass and no charge.
- Electron-neutrinos are affected by the:
