摘要(Abstract):
中微子是目前粒子物理、核物理、地球物理与天体物理及宇宙学研究中的一个交叉热门研究方向.2015年10月6日,瑞典皇家科学院宣布2015年诺贝尔物理学奖授予梶田隆章(Takaaki Kajita)和阿瑟·麦克唐纳(Arthur B.McDonald),以表彰他们在发现中微子振荡也就是中微子有质量上所作出的贡献.本文将从中微子物理发展历史角度介绍中微子实验的过去、当前状况及未来发展,尤其是通过侧重对中微子振荡实验的介绍来解读该奖项.最后,还介绍了国内目前正在开展与拟议建设的中微子实验.
关键词(KeyWords): 中微子;中微子质量;中微子振荡;中微子实验
基金项目(Foundation): 国家重点基础研究发展计划(973计划)课题“大亚湾中微子实验的物理研究”(编号:2013CB834302);; 国家自然科学基金重点项目“低能反电子中微子的实验研究”(编号:11235006)
