For some decades now physicists have known that particles called neutrinos come in threetypes namely electron, muon, and tau but during the mid 1990s the Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector (LSND), which was an experiment at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico made a quite abnormal discovery as it detected evidence of a new particle referred to as sterile neutrino which was capable of passing through matter without interacting with it. Further experiments were conducted but none could detect any hidden particle separate from the ones that were known so the results from the LSND experiment were put aside. Various experiments have been conducted to see if the hidden particle detected before could once again be observed but all have so far given results that this particle does not exist. Actually all but one which is MiniBooNE a follow-up experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), located near Chicago which has picked up the hidden particle’s scent again.
