Neutrinos- The Spirit Particle (Chapter 4)

Neutrinos are known as the "Ghost Particle" or the "Spirit Particle". Below is what Dr. Peter Gorham said about neutrinos and linking it to the spirit world:

"Dr. Peter Gorham, a physicist at the University of Hawaii who was then leading the neutrino detection project in Antarctica. Dr. Gorham said he and his team are trying to be the "first scientific group to detect the highest energy neutrinos in the universe." This led to a brief exchange between Herzog and Dr. Gorham.

Herzog: Yeah, but Dr. Gorham, what exactly is a neutrino?

Gorham: The neutrino...is the most ridiculous particle you could imagine. A billion neutrinos went through my nose as we were talking. A trillion, a trillion of them went through my nose just now, and they did nothing to me. They pass through all of the matter around us continually, in a huge, huge blast of particles that does nothing at all. They're like...they almost exist in a separate universe, but we know, as physicists, we can measure them, we can make precision predictions and measurements. They exist, but we can't get our hands on them, because they seem to just exist in another place, and yet without neutrinos, the beginning of the universe would not have worked. We would not have the matter that we have today, because you couldn't create the elements without the neutrinos. In the very, very earliest few seconds of the big bang, the neutrinos were the dominant particle, and they actually determined much of the kinetics of the production of the elements we know. So, the universe can't exist the way it is without the neutrinos, but they seem to be in their own separate universe, and we're trying to actually make contact with that otherworldly universe of neutrinos. And as a physicist, even though I understand it mathematically and I understand it intellectually, it still hits me in the gut that there is something here around surrounding me almost like some kind of spirit or god that I can't touch, but I can measure it. I can make a measurement. It's like measuring the spirit world or something like that. You can go out and touch these things.

We’re awash in neutrinos. They’re among the lightest of the two dozen or so known subatomic particles and they come from all directions: from the Big Bang that began the universe, from exploding stars and, most of all, from the sun. They come straight through the earth at nearly the speed of light, all the time, day and night, in enormous numbers. About 100 trillion neutrinos pass through our bodies every second.

The problem for physicists is that neutrinos are impossible to see and difficult to detect. Any instrument designed to do so may feel solid to the touch, but to neutrinos, even stainless steel is mostly empty space, as wide open as a solar system is to a comet. What’s more, neutrinos, unlike most subatomic particles, have no electric charge—they’re neutral, hence the name—so scientists can’t use electric or magnetic forces to capture them. Physicists call them “ghost particles.”

I believe the neutrino ghost or spirit particle is related/connected to the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit. 

"For the large majority of Christians, the Holy Spirit (or Holy Ghost, from Old English gast, "spirit") is the third divine person of the Trinity: the "Triune God" manifested as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; each person itself being God."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_Spirit

"The English word spirit (from Latin spiritus "breath") has many differing meanings and connotations, most of them relating to a non-corporeal substance contrasted with the material body. The word spirit is often used metaphysically to refer to the consciousness or personality. The notions of a person's spirit and soul often also overlap, as both contrast with body and both are understood as surviving the bodily death in religion and occultism,[1] and "spirit" can also have the sense of "ghost", i.e. a manifestation of the spirit of a deceased person.

The term may also refer to any incorporeal or immaterial being, such as demons or deities. In the Bible "the Spirit" (with a capital "S") specifically denotes the Holy Spirit."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirit

"Who is the Holy Spirit? How should we approach Him? What are His attributes? What does the Bible say about Him?

Let’s start off with the introduction of the Holy Spirit. It’s found right in the first chapter of Genesis in the second verse: "The earth was without form and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. Then God said, 'Let there be light;' and there was light." At the very beginning of Genesis, you have God’s Word, Jesus; you have God the Father; and you have the Holy Spirit: the Trinity all represented in creation.

The interesting part of this is the Hebrew word for spirit. We almost get a little spooky talking about the Holy Ghost, but the Hebrew word behind spirit is ruach, and it means "air in motion." It is the same word for "breath." It also means "life.

Here is a fascinitating Youtube video that talks about God versus Neutrinos. 

  
In my next blog post I will relate how the neutrinos could be the 5th dimension or spiritual world. 

Below is a poem by well-known Australian poet Geoff Page.

Neutrinos and the holy spirit

Our physics and our metaphysics, how close they often are:
the staircase of theology; the gaps from star to star. 

Neutrinos and the holy spirit make a sprightly pair,
the latter as a tongue of fire or dove down through the air; 

the former near but not quite at the sacred speed of light
and just above nonzero mass. When I'm in bed at night 

fifty trillion mute neutrinos sweep through me every second
and through the earth as well, it seems, while theologians reckon 

how the holy spirit widens all about the world,
felt at times through fire and doves - but do I see it, curled 

contentedly inside my dreams? Has it nonzero mass?
Can it be measured in a tank through which its rivals pass? 

Neither's seen by rods and cones; neutrinos though are caught
by clever dials. The holy spirit soars from human thought.
