A neutrino detector submerged in the Mediterranean Sea has sniffed out the most energetic ghost particle yet NEW YORK -- A neutrino detector submerged in the Mediterranean Sea has sniffed out the ...

An extraordinary event consistent with a neutrino with an estimated energy of about 220 PeV (220 x 10 15 electron volts or 220 million billion electron volts), was detected on February 13 ...

Writing in Nature, Aiello et al. 2 report evidence of the highest-energy cosmic neutrino detected so far, which zipped through their detector deep in the Mediterranean Sea. The energy of this ...

The neutrino, as the particle is formally known, is 30 times more energetic than any of the few hundreds of previously detected neutrinos. These tiny, high-energy particles from space are often ...

Detection was made 3,450 meters (2.1 miles) underwater Scientists try to determine where neutrino originated Studying neutrinos have provide new insight in astronomy Feb 12 (Reuters) - Using an ...

Now, our new paper – with 21 countries, more than 60 institutes and around 360 scientists contributing – reports the observation of the most energetic neutrino yet. Despite the enormous number ...

Researchers conduct final inspections on a neutrino Detection Unit (DU) aboard a research vessel to the seafloor in the Mediterranean Sea in this undated handout image ...

The particle, which momentarily flashed across a detector inside the Cubic Kilometre Neutrino Telescope (KM3NeT) at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea, is a neutrino with an estimated energy of ...

KM3NeT comprises two large neutrino detectors at the bottom of the Mediterranean. One called ARCA - 3,450 meters (2.1 miles) deep near Sicily - is designed to find high-energy neutrinos.

The first direct measurement of the size of the neutrino, a fundamental particle, suggests they are at least larger than an atomic nucleus – but they could potentially be trillions of times larger.

(Reuters) - Using an observatory under construction deep beneath the Mediterranean Sea near Sicily, scientists have detected a ghostly subatomic particle called a neutrino boasting record-breaking ...
