What is the noun for neutrino?

What's the noun for neutrino? Here's the word you're looking for.

neutrino
  1. An elementary particle that is classified as a lepton, and has an extremely small but nonzero mass and no electric charge. It interacts with the surroundings only via the weak force or gravitation, making it very difficult to detect.
  2. Examples:
    1. “The electron and muon neutrinos are easier to produce and detect than the tau neutrino.”
      “The discovery of the neutrino was predicted on the basis of the principle of conservation of energy.”
      “At this energy level, only up and down quarks, the electron and the electron neutrino exist.”
neutron
  1. (physics) A subatomic particle forming part of the nucleus of an atom and having no charge; it is a combination of an up quark and two down quarks.
  2. Synonyms:
    1. n
  3. Examples:
    1. “A neutron is an elementary particle found in the atomic nucleus, with no electric charge.”
      “This process also stabilizes white dwarfs and neutron stars against gravitational collapse.”
      “This is because the proton is made of two up quarks and a down quark, while the neutron comprises two downs and an up.”
neutronization
  1. (physics) The process, such as within a collapsing star, in which protons and electrons fuse to form neutrons and release neutrinos.
neutralino
  1. (physics) Any of several hypothetical particles, predicted by supersymmetry, related to neutrinos.
neutronium
  1. (physics) The supposed material, composed entirely of neutrons, that makes up a neutron star.
  2. Synonyms:
neutrinosphere
  1. (astronomy) The region of a star or supernova rich in neutrinos
neutronics
  1. (physics) The flow of a stream of neutrons
neutrinospheres
  1. plural of neutrinosphere
neutralinos
  1. plural of neutralino
neutrinos
  1. plural of neutrino
  2. Examples:
    1. “Quarks have bosonic partners called squarks, neutrinos have sneutrinos and so on.”
      “Cosmic neutrinos are extremely high energy subatomic particles, like protons and electrons, but neutrinos have no electrical charge.”
      “This colour quantum number is additional to leptonic flavour which distinguishes neutrinos from charged leptons.”
neutrons
  1. plural of neutron
  2. Examples:
    1. “In the course of the 20th century, science successively named electrons, protons, neutrons, and quarks.”
      “If a nucleus has too many protons for its number of neutrons, it will be radioactive.”
      “That process would briefly liberate the quarks and gluons that make up protons and neutrons.”
