... long lives, the supernova-spawned neutrinos of 20 million electron voltes or less interact with matter. These neutrinos include low energy electrons that give off light and can be detected in pure water. are massive exploding giant stars. When the explosion occurs, the resulting illumination can be as bright as an entire galaxy. One of the most energetic explosive happenings known is a supernova. occur at the end of a stars lifetime, when its nuclear fuel is exhausted an it is no longer suppor ...
