Neutrino (French Edition)

The detector rests at the bottom of a pit seven metres deep and as many wide. It is very difficult to catch neutrinos, despite the fact that they are the commonest elementary particles in the universe. They may even have served as building blocks for all the matter that surrounds us. But they are nevertheless almost undetectable: As their name — "little neutral one" in Italian— suggests, they are electrically neutral. No magnetic field diverts them from their course, shooting straight ahead at almost the speed of light. Above all, having nearly zero mass, they very rarely encounter any obstacles.

Almost nothing stops them. Only if they happen to collide with an atom does a flash of energy reveal their passing. The physicists in the cave at Chooz are on the lookout for collisions of this sort, or more exactly a possible lack of collisions. Nuclear reactors also release enormous amounts of electron neutrinos … or more exactly antineutrinos, with properties and characteristics considered to be identical.

Tracking down the crafty neutrino

The two reactors at Chooz each produce 10 26 antineutrinos a day, which hare off in all directions. Given the detector's volume 10 cubic metres and its distance from the source 1km , about 10 21 of these particles pass through it every day. According to probability calculations, only 70 of them should actually hit the detector. Every day, Neutrino spoonfeeds you clear, detailed, chunked down, chewed up, simplified, minified instructions on:.

Neutrino focuses you on learning the things that real native speakers in real life know and use. Old SilverSpoon showed, guided, prodded, instructed and mapped you to the crack, SilverSpoon-Neutrino is the crack. You will never have to think again. You will never have to fret again. You will never have to plan again. You will never have to worry again.

At least as far as this language learn game is concerned. All you need do is show up for your fix. And not even that: There are far too many changes to list here or anywhere — this is something that needs to be experienced to be understood. But here is a brief description of some of the changes:. Like the Matrix, one has to see them for oneself.

The good news is that many of the awesome parts of Old SilverSpoon remain the same and merge into SilverSpoon-Neutrino. The difference between Neutrino and SilverSpoon 1. Yes, I make spaceships now. Succeed or get your money back. Fluency or your money back. The days of messing around are over. The people who take your money to help you learn should take responsibility for the results.

L'Irfu à la Une

Neutrino works for you. Neutrino does not require hard work, struggle, boredom or pain. Neutrino does not require you to move city or country.

Neutrino does not even require that you leave your bed. Neutrino does, however, require that you show up. You show up, and Neutrino takes care of the rest. Neutrino works on a point system. You are an individual, not a number, not a drone. How long it will take you go through the program is completely up to you and within your control several hundred days is the norm , but either way, you are protected by this fluency guarantee.

So here is the Neutrino fo-shizzle fluency guarantee in no uncertain terms: Neutrino absolutely guarantees fluency to you and everyone who accumulates a full point total in the system. But the peace of mind may be worth it. For my part, I would rather you try to join when you feel more certain.

What is Neutrino French? Education by Addiction What if learning French could be addictive? But it could be even cooler.

But they have their strengths.

It makes you bored and confused and make you want to go home. They punish exceptional performance They force you to work at their pace They have crappy taste in, like, everything. Did I mention they bore you to effing death? You could do every little boring thing they say to do in a class and still not know any real French. They create a self-fulfilling prophecy of crappiness. The teachers who do have faith in you lack a system where having a system counts.

They have a system of scaring and forcing you to do things, but no system to get you to fluency. And Neutrino gives it to you. Neutrino fixes all those problems and more. What if you could have all the benefits of a French class with none of the drawbacks?

What if learning a language could be a series of short, fun, refreshing sprints, rather than some long, drawn-out endless marathon? What if learning a language for real — to fluency, to high-level proficiency — could have a clear, meaningful, reachable, specific, quantified endpoint? What if someone could tell you, down to the day, when you would be fluent, and then lead you every step of the way the way there, and make sure you actually got there, just like a physical roadtrip?

Smart, perfectionistic people cannot do tortoise math. Let me repeat myself. Do you feel overwhelmed by all the things going on in your life? Are all these effing questions starting sound like a Xanax commercial? Do you wish that someone could be there for you every step of the way, like a parent or big brother or Mr. Do you wish someone else would do all the worrying and big-picture thinking and planning and strategizing for you?

No leaving you alone? Do you wish you could abdicate responsibility of handling the structure and scheduling of your learning, while enjoying the freedom of choosing the content? Are you overloaded with good ideas but underloaded with action?

Do you just want clear, simple, straightfoward, easy directions and validation? If that sounds like you, then maybe you need to be spoonfed. Maybe you need Neutrino. French media books, music, movies, TV shows and tools electronic dictionary, extra mp3 player, VPN access to Japan, etc. What You Do Get Every day, Neutrino spoonfeeds you clear, detailed, chunked down, chewed up, simplified, minified instructions on: What to do How to do it How long to do it Where to do it What to use How to use it What to read What to watch What to learn When and where to learn it How long to learn it for What to buy Where to buy it When to buy it In short, Neutrino manages and spoonfeeds all major areas for you, including: Three wire planes, each of which is made up of thousands of individual wires, recorded the signal of the muon as it traveled approximately 3.

It is the first time CERN is investing in infrastructure and detector development for a particle physics project in the United States. The first ProtoDUNE detector took two years to build and eight weeks to fill with tons of liquid argon, which needs to be kept at temperatures below minus degrees Celsius minus degrees Fahrenheit.

Now that the first tracks have been seen, scientists will operate the detector over the next several months to test the technology in depth. More than 1, scientists and engineers from 32 countries spanning five continents — Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America — are working on the development, design and construction of the DUNE detectors. The groundbreaking ceremony for the caverns that will house the experiment was held in July When neutrinos enter the detectors and smash into the argon nuclei, they produce charged particles.

Those particles leave ionization traces in the liquid, which can be seen by sophisticated tracking systems able to create three-dimensional pictures of otherwise invisible subatomic processes.
