“They hit the jackpot,” says Francis Halzen, a physicist at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and principal investigator of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory in Antarctica. “We have been ...
PARIS — A neutrino with 30 times more energy than any previously seen on Earth was detected by an unfinished observatory at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea after travelling from beyond this galaxy ...
But occasionally, a cosmic neutrino that smashes into the planet’s surface also produces a muon. In the February 2023 event detected by the Sicily observatory, the team estimated that the muon ...
That is why the Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope, or KM3NeT, lies at the bottom of the Mediterranean. - Think of a ping pong ball - The European-led facility is still under construction ...
For example, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the South Pole includes a grid of more than 5,000 sensors embedded in the Antarctic ice. The detector has been operating since 2011, and has ...
Paris (AFP) – A neutrino with 30 times more energy than any previously seen on Earth was detected by an unfinished observatory at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea after travelling from beyond ...
The detector that made the discovery is part of a deep-sea neutrino observatory that’s still under construction. Neutrino detectors are often located underwater, beneath ice or deep underground ...
