江门中微子实验预计2021年建成 - 2019年01月15日

The excavation and construction of an area 700 meters underground for the Jiangmen neutrino observatory has been completed, and lab equipment will be installed soon. It was announced yesterday at a Shanghai Jiao Tong University conference.

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory will be ready for experiments in 2021, and is expected to run for at least 20 years.

The research team, led by Chinese scientists with participation from 600 scientists from 17 countries and regions, is expected to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy in six years.
