Until now, physicists measuring the properties of solar neutrinos have had to make a compromise – either measure the particles’ energy with high precision and sacrifice directional information or pin down direction and settle for inferior energy resolution. But now physicists working on the Borexino neutrino detector in Italy have shown it is possible to make both measurements simultaneously by exploiting the known position of the Sun at any time to work out the trajectory of electrons sca
