The SNO equipment itself is currently being refurbished for use in the SNO + experiment.

The results of the experiment had a major impact on the field, as evidenced by the fact that two of the SNO papers have been cited over 1, 500 times, and two others have been cited over 750 times.

The " hidden " part of the experiment — the fraction f for SNO, the charge-sign database for CDF — is usually called the " blindness box ".

1997 – ISAC-I civil construction begins, TWIST approved, SNO involvement begins, DRAGON experiment proposed

The SNO detector would have been capable of detecting a supernova within our galaxy if one had occurred while the detector was online.

SNO was a founding member of the Supernova Early Warning System ( SNEWS ) with Super-Kamiokande and the Large Volume Detector.

With approximately 100 collaborators, SNO was a rather small group compared to collider experiments.

* In November 2006, the entire SNO team was awarded the inaugural John C. Polanyi Award for " a recent outstanding advance in any field of the natural sciences or engineering " conducted in Canada.

It was named after teacher Ivan ( Yanis ) Kanidis and his son ; the teacher died during the Beslan school hostage crisis in 2004 at School Number One ( SNO ).

Comintern Street SNO was one of seven schools in Beslan, a town of around 35, 000 people in the republic of North Ossetia – Alania, in Russia's Caucasus.

It was also reported that the SNO in Beslan was used by Ossetian nationalist militia forces as an internment camp for ethnic Ingush civilians in late 1992 during the short but bloody Ingush – Ossetian East Prigorodny conflict, in which hundreds of Ingush residents of North Ossetia lost their lives or disappeared during the week-long hostilities, and thus the school was arguably chosen as the target of the attack by the mostly Ingush rebel group because of this connection.

According to media reports, SNO was one of several buildings in which the Ossetian hostage-takers had held hundreds of Ingush hostages, many of them women and children ; the hostages been kept in the same gymnasium, deprived of food and water, at least one newborn and several dozen male hostages were executed Beslan was also site of an airfield used by the Russian Air Force for combat operations in Chechnya since 1994.

* Vladimir Anatolievich Khodov ( 28 ), nicknamed " Abdullah " – An ethnic Ossetian-Ukrainian from the village of Elkhotovo in Kirovsky District of North Ossetia, Khodov was former pupil of the Beslan SNO and one of the reputed leaders of the hostage-takers.

The first measurements of the number of solar neutrinos reaching the earth were taken in the 1960s, and all experiments prior to SNO observed a third to a half fewer neutrinos than were predicted by the Standard Solar Model.

All of the solar neutrino detectors prior to SNO had been sensitive primarily or exclusively to electron neutrinos and yielded little to no information on muon neutrinos and tau neutrinos.

Although Super-K had beaten SNO to the punch, having published evidence for neutrino oscillation as early as 1998, the Super-K results were not conclusive and did not specifically deal with solar neutrinos.

The total flux of all neutrino flavours measured by SNO agrees well with the theoretical prediction.

Further measurements carried out by SNO have since confirmed and improved the precision of the original result.

Due to the limited size of the SNO detector in comparison with Super-K the low cosmic ray neutrino signal is not statistically significant at neutrino energies below 1 GeV.

A SNO, Neotel, has been licensed in South Africa and is currently offering a wireless service in selected areas.

The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory ( SNO ) is a neutrino observatory located 6, 800 feet ( about 2 km ) underground in Vale Inco's Creighton Mine in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada.

While new data is no longer being taken, the SNO collaboration will continue to analyze the data taken during that period for the next several years.

The SNO collaboration held its first meeting in 1984.

At the time it competed with TRIUMF's KAON Factory proposal for federal funding, and the wide variety of universities backing SNO quickly led to it being selected for development.

The SNO detector target consisted of of heavy water contained in a radius acrylic vessel.

The observatory is located at the end of a long drift, named the " SNO drift ", isolating it from other mining operations.

In 2007, the Franklin Institute awarded the director of SNO Art McDonald with the Benjamin Franklin Medal in Physics.

* Asteroid 14724 SNO is named in honour of SNO.

The value of the elections was lost, both as an experiment in increased political participation and as a reliable indicator of commercial interest, as shown in Table 1.

To try to oppose the general religious and moral conviction of such a majority by a legislative fiat would be to invite the same breakdown of law and order that was occasioned by the ill-starred Prohibition experiment.

A sense of self-certainty and the freedom to experiment with different roles, or confidence in one's own unique behavior as an alternative to peer-group conformity, is more easily developed during adolescence if, during early childhood, the individual was permitted to exercise initiative and encouraged to develop some autonomy.

Altruism, the experiment suggested, was not a superior moral faculty that suppresses basic selfish urges but rather was basic to the brain, hard-wired and pleasurable.

It is a popular belief that alchemists made contributions to the " chemical " industries of the day — ore testing and refining, metalworking, production of gunpowder, ink, dyes, paints, cosmetics, leather tanning, ceramics, glass manufacture, preparation of extracts, liquors, and so on ( it seems that the preparation of aqua vitae, the " water of life ", was a fairly popular " experiment " among European alchemists ).

The experiment showed that after removing this bacteria, healthy bacteria was able to move in and replace the habitat and preventing S. mutans from regrowing.

Argon ( αργος, Greek meaning " inactive ", in reference to its chemical inactivity ) was suspected to be present in air by Henry Cavendish in 1785 but was not isolated until 1894 by Lord Rayleigh and Sir William Ramsay in Scotland in an experiment in which they removed all of the oxygen, carbon dioxide, water and nitrogen from a sample of clean air.

Rutherford interpreted the gold foil experiment as suggesting that the positive charge of a heavy gold atom and most of its mass was concentrated in a nucleus at the center of the atom — the Rutherford model.

" Amazing Grace " came to be an emblem of a religious movement and a symbol of the U. S. itself as the country was involved in a great political experiment, attempting to employ democracy as a means of government.

For example, antibacterial selection within whole bacterial populations for strains having previously acquired antibacterial-resistance genes was demonstrated in 1943 by the Luria – Delbrück experiment.

In an article he submitted for the medical journal The Lancet during World War I, Fleming described an ingenious experiment, which he was able to conduct as a result of his own glass blowing skills, in which he explained why antiseptics were killing more soldiers than infection itself during World War I. Antiseptics worked well on the surface, but deep wounds tended to shelter anaerobic bacteria from the antiseptic agent, and antiseptics seemed to remove beneficial agents produced that protected the patients in these cases at least as well as they removed bacteria, and did nothing to remove the bacteria that were out of reach.

The crew performed the Apollo light flash experiment, or ALFMED, to investigate " light flashes " that were seen by the astronauts when the spacecraft was dark, regardless of whether or not their eyes were open, on Apollo lunar flights.

While deploying a heat-flow experiment that had burned up with the Lunar Module Aquarius on Apollo 13 and had been attempted without success on Apollo 15, a cable was inadvertently snapped after getting caught around Young's foot.

The MEED experiment was only performed on Apollo 16.

While the house is clearly intended for a wealthy family, Aalto nevertheless argued that it was also an experiment that would prove useful in the design of mass housing.

The experimental protocol used in Carlson's study was agreed to by a group of physicists and astrologers prior to the actual experiment itself.

The first person to experiment in this fashion was Francis Herbert Wenham, who in doing so constructed the first wind tunnel in 1871.

The 1904 Thomson model was disproved by the 1909 gold foil experiment, which was interpreted by Ernest Rutherford in 1911

The experiment was abandoned the following season.

The frequency of new enhancing lesions as detected by Gd-enhanced MRI was reduced by more than half in 12 patients, comparing the six-month run-in phase to the six-month post-BCG phase of the experiment.

By repeating the experiment with particles of inorganic matter he was able to rule out that the motion was life-related, although its origin was yet to be explained.
