Which is it? &gt; stepping stones Observation of missing momentum-energy in Lithium-6 decays (Pauli, 1930 [1]) until direct detection of the (electron anti-)neutrino (Reines and Cowan, 1956) took 26 years and a number of false starts including failures to detect neutrinos in detectors at nuclear weapon tests and nuclear reactors, where the production of neutrinos was expected. Observation of solar neutrinos took a further thirteen years (Davis, HOMESTAKE, 1969).
