Conversation

Did you hear about the new experiment that aims to detect neutrinoless double beta decay?

No, I haven't! What's that about?

It's an interesting study that could help us understand neutrinos better, especially if they can achieve neutrinoless results.

Wow, that sounds fascinating! I need to read more about it.

Root Explanation

Neutrinoless → It is formed from "neutrino" (from Italian *neutrino*, meaning little neutral one) and "-less" (meaning without). The word "neutrinoless" refers to a state or condition that is without neutrinos.

Memory Tip

Think of 'neutrino' meaning a little neutral particle, and '-less' indicating the absence of something — so 'neutrinoless' means without neutrinos.
