Geoneutrino

The Feynman diagram for β− decay of a neutron into a proton, electron, and electron antineutrino via an intermediate W− boson.
Geoneutrino signal prediction at Earth's surface in terrestrial neutrino units (TNU).
Schematic of the KamLAND antineutrino detector.

A geoneutrino is an electron antineutrino emitted in β decay of a radionuclide naturally occurring in the Earth. Neutrinos, the lightest of the known subatomic particles, lack measurable electromagnetic properties and interact only via the weak nuclear force. Matter is virtually transparent to neutrinos and consequently they travel, unimpeded, at near light speed through the Earth from their point of emission. Collectively, geoneutrinos carry integrated information about the abundances of their radioactive sources inside the Earth. A major objective of the emerging field of neutrino geophysics involves extracting geologically useful information (e.g., abundances of individual geoneutrino-producing elements and their spatial distribution in Earth’s interior) from geoneutrino measurements.
