-the electron neutrino is a ‘sub-atomic lepton elementary particle’ which has no “net electric charge”-
.
(together with the ‘electron’, it forms the ‘1st generation’ of ‘leptons’, hence the name “electron neutrino”)
(it was first hypothesized by “wolfgang pauli” in ‘1930’, to account for ‘missing momentum’ + ‘missing energy’ in “beta decay”, and was discovered in ‘1956’ by a team led by “clyde cowan” + “frederick reines”)
