Gran Sasso International alittlemarket Working Group discovered subatomic particles originate from the depths of the earth, alittlemarket and hope that the findings will help geologists understand alittlemarket how a planet affects the depth of the energy generated by earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur.
The world's largest nuclear reactor is probably the Earth itself, which is the fuel of uranium and thorium. However, until now, however, is not entirely clear how a major role in continually degrade radioactive elements in the Earth's exactly play a heating. Nor can it be assumed, therefore, how it will affect mantle convection happening - slow and steady circulation of molten rock, which transfers heat from inside the Earth's surface. Convection, in turn, causes the lamas teotoonikat and related phenomena such as the movement of the continents, volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. Can only speculate whether the radioactive decay heating of the Earth's alittlemarket core maker.
For millions of light years away from the processes taking place is often much easier to be seen as a peek into the Earth's interior. Researchers in the Italian Nuclear Physics Institute of the Gran Sasso laboratory-confirmed, however, in its recent alittlemarket findings, the researchers have found a suitable tool. The results of the working group are based Borexino experiment, experiment, detected by the Japanese KamLANDi alittlemarket geoneutriinodele - strange particles that arise from the decomposition of heavy nuclei.
Ordinary neutrinos have no charge alittlemarket and inert fundamentaalosakesed that reach the Earth from cosmic rays, as well as a continuous stream from the sun. But Geoneutriinod antineutrino - neutrino and antimatter mate arise uranium, thorium and potassium in radioactive decay.
Neutrinos come from the sun to generate detector when exposed to one type of signal when geoneutriinod create a different kind of signal. Since, however, is thousands of times less geoneutriinosid, they discovered only a few a year. Gran Sasso experiment began in December 2009 and published alittlemarket in the journal Physics Letters B study describes the results alittlemarket gathered during this time. It is believed that the Earth's mantle and the cortex of decomposition energy makes up most of the Earth's interior from heat kütvast. Neutrinos detected by Borexino experiment alittlemarket confirms this hypothesis.
Borexino project is located some miles below the Gran Sasso mountain in order to be shielded from cosmic rays and radiation detectors such as, for example, hydrogen and helium nuclei. The neutrinos are difficult to detect, because most of them passes through a substance cleanly, while interactions without it. In the experiment used in the detector is composed alittlemarket of a ball made of nylon containing 1.000 tons of a liquid state hydrocarbons. Spherical half of which lies teraskeras, in turn, is directed to a row of photodetectors are hypersensitive. All of this is surrounded by a further 2,400 tons of purified water, which is located about 20 meters in diameter steel globe.
Although Borexino experiment was originally designed for the low-energy solar neutrinos, not geoneutriinode detection, the researchers found soon, the detectors can also be used for the final. "Experiment building, we realized that we have opportunities in the Land of internal radioactive processes resulting from neutrino detection," said Cristiano Galbiati, one of the 88 scientists who are working on the project.
Geoneutriinode The importance became clear in the 1960s, but the depth was working in the field for nearly thirty years later, when Lawrence Krauss, Sheldon Glashow and David Schramm laid foundation alittlemarket of scientific disciplines. Geoneutriinod first discovered in 2005 in Japan and the United States by the group KamLANDi detector when it is observed in the low-energy antineutrino surplus.
Scientists alittlemarket are hoping that the new detector developments across the information can be used to predict future volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occur. Gran Sasso results of the Working Group also acknowledged Thomas Duffy, a professor of geosciences at Princeton: "This is an important and promising discovery, which helps to better understand what the Earth is composed of how the Earth works."
