中微子多么渺小,
没质量微不足道。
没有电荷,
对谁也不干扰。
地球是个傻大个,
驰骋穿过自逍遥。
无论气体多特异,
还是铜墙铁壁挡,
它进退伸缩真自如,
穿过了地球,
还回头礼貌一笑。
深夜它从床底飞出,
穿过梦中人的身体,
惊动不了一丝一毫!
啊,我说
这宇宙真令人烦恼,
你却道:
世事真无限奇妙!【1】
美国当代名作家厄普代克(John Updike),一位爱捉捉迷藏且越老越能写的诗人,得知中微子的行为后,于1960年写道:
Neutrinos, they are very small.
They have no charge and have no mass
The earth is just a silly ball
And do not interact at all.
To them, through which they simply pass,
Like dustmaids through a drafty hall
Or photons through a sheet of glass.
They snub the most exquisite gas,
Ignore the most substantial wall,
Cold-shoulder steel and sounding brass,
Insult the stallion in his stall,
And scorning barriers of class,
Infiltrate you and me!
Like tall And painless guillotines, they fall Down through our heads into the grass.
At night, they enter at Nepal And pierce the lover and his lass
From underneath the bed - you call It wonderful; I call it crass.【2】
