THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE GAME
Neutrinos: the elusive travellers through matter
The Sun sends out more than light. Nuclear reactions also produce neutrinos, and enormous numbers pass through us without leaving a trace. For these particles, a body or a planet is usually an almost transparent obstacle.
Why are neutrinos so hard to detect?
Neutrinos interact very weakly with matter and have tiny, nonzero masses. They can change among three flavours as they travel, a phenomenon known as oscillation. Their mass and changing identity make them valuable clues in questions that particle physics has not fully answered. Fermilab: What are neutrinos telling us? ↗
Where the game takes a different path
The game borrows their ability to pass through most bodies. Tap-triggered explosions, Photon absorption, Neutrino collisions and absolute field immunities are fictional. A real neutrino is not completely interaction-free, and gravity is not simply switched off for it.
Learning from rare events
The fact that most pass through makes the few detected interactions precious. The game turns elusiveness into a targeting challenge; real experiments turn it into a reason to build sensitive detectors and study rare signals.
Neutrino in Entangled Chaos
Passes through other bodies, except another Neutrino, while still absorbing Photons and travelling through Wormholes. Only tap sparks, Neutrino blasts and Antimatter blasts can trigger it. Its explosion radius is 25% larger than Normal. Gravity, push, pull and freeze effects do not affect it.
