Undergraduates
I am a sceptic of relativity theory and am trying to become a believer. As far as I know (about this theory), time slows down when some one travels at the speed of light. What about blind people ? Will this effect happen for them as well ?.. I am curious because blind people have nothing to do with light.
Neutrinos are among the most abundant particles in the Universe, yet they are notoriously difficult to detect. Tremendous progress has been made to reveal the properties of these elusive particles, thanks to many beautiful experiments during the last two decades. We now know that neutrinos can morph from one type to another and have nonzero masses.

Nevertheless, many mysteries about these ghostly particles remain to be solved. In this lecture, I will introduce the enigmatic neutrinos and discuss the ongoing experiments to pin them down.
