Scientists may have found a new way to detect some of the universe's most mysterious objects, primordial black holes (PBHs), ...

A microquasar belonging to our Milky Way galaxy has set records by generating cosmic rays with energy levels never before ...

JPEO-CBRND is fielding the MRDS, a capability that enables the joint force to understand rad-nuc hazards in their environment ...

Moreover, the detector that pinpointed this particle isn't even totally built yet — once put together, ... One of the KM3NeT optical modules that detect Cherenkov radiation.

This is a model of the first neutrino detector, the Super-Kamioka Neutrino Detection Experiment, located near Hida, Japan. ... a bluish light called Cherenkov radiation.

KM3NeT (short for the Cubic Kilometer Neutrino Telescope) is a detector spanning a cubic kilometer (0.24 cubic mile) anchored to the seafloor 2.2 miles ... called Cherenkov radiation.

Undersea detectors anchored deep in the Mediterranean Sea found an ultra-high-energy neutrino, a particle that opens a new window onto the cosmos.

The detection is tantalizing, but it also poses more questions than it answers. KM3NeT is joining a long-running neutrino telescope called IceCube that has been gathering data from near the South ...

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.

Instruments used for this kind of detection are called imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs). The MACE telescope is an IACT. Cherenkov radiation glowing in the core of the Advanced Test ...

Because the rays lose energy as they travel through space, their detection at high energies means they are likely coming from sources relatively close to Earth. Skip to main content Open menu ...
