==Key Stage 5==
===Meaning===
An '''muon-neutrino''' ('''ν<sub>μ</sub>''') is a type of [[neutrino]] with the [[Neutrino Flavour|flavour]] of a [[muon]].
===About Muon-neutrinos===
: The '''muon-neutrino''' is denoted with the Greek letter ν ('nu') with the subscript μ ('mu').
: '''Muon-neutrinos''' are [[Fundamental Particle|fundamental particles]] as they are not made of any smaller [[particle]]s.
: The '''muon-neutrino''' has negligible [[mass]] and no [[Electrical Charge|charge]].
: '''Muon-neutrinos''' are affected by the:
:*[[Weak Nuclear Interaction]]
:*[[Gravitational Interaction]]
