Scientist solves "gallium anomaly" — the mystery of missing neutrinos cracked

A physicist preparing a lecture spotted a flaw in the reasoning behind the so-called gallium anomaly — a longstanding puzzle where neutrino detectors registered fewer particles than theory predicted. The solution, published in Nature, suggests the apparent deficit stemmed from a calculation error rather than unknown physics. The finding could end years of debate over the possible existence of hypothetical sterile neutrinos.
