The explanation for some strange experimental results could lie in undiscovered particles called sterile neutrinos. When physicists finally detected the Higgs boson in 2012, they validated a theoretical prediction made some 50 years earlier. But not every particle that physicists are searching for has such a history. Several experiments are on the hunt for a particle that theory never demanded--but that could wind up answering several open questions in particle physics. Known as a sterile neutri...
