Zusammenfassung |
Geo-neutrinos, electron anti-neutrinos produced in β-decays of
naturally occurring radioactive isotopes in the Earth, are a unique direct
probe of our planet's interior. After a brief introduction about the Earth
(mostly for physicists) and the very basics about the neutrinos and
anti-neutrinos (mostly for geologists), I describe the geo-neutrino
properties and the main aims of their study. An overview of the latest
experimental results obtained by KamLAND and Borexino experiments is
provided. A short overview of future perspectives of this new
inter-disciplinary field is given. |
