Geoneutrino Detection Reveals Heterogeneous Distribution of Radioactive Elements in Earth's Mantle

A global network of neutrino detectors, including SNO+, is mapping Earth's mantle by detecting geoneutrinos, revealing potential heterogeneities in radioactive element distribution. These findings challenge the traditional view of a uniform mantle and suggest the presence of large low-shear-velocity provinces influencing heat production.
