Physicists have managed to observe neutrinos inside a particle accelerator for the first time. While neutrinos are produced abundantly inside particle accelerators, they have so far been difficult to observe due to their very weak interactions with other particles. The neutrinos observed in the study had the highest energy ever recorded in a laboratory environment. The research could pave the way for in-depth studies of the properties of neutrinos and aid in the search for other elusive particles.

The internet both fragments and concentrates attention. Networks are subject to powerful feedback loops. Algorithms can boost or dampen social signals. This results in a distribution of consumption where there are a few massive hits but a lot of randomness in the middle. While this means that there will likely always be big hits, the cost of producing one is increasing.
