In 1934, Soviet physicist Pavel Cherenkov witnessed what happens when it does, after bombarding water with radiation. A blue ...

Cherenkov Radiation With its thousands of photomultiplier tubes, the Super-Kamiokande neutrino detector looks like something straight out of an early-2000s hip-hop film clip. Credit: Super ...

In a water Cherenkov detector, the Cherenkov radiation is detected, usually by photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), ... (SO 4) 3 in the water of a water Cherenkov detector could provide a way to distinguish ...

The group's detector design exploits Cherenkov radiation, a phenomenon in which radiation is emitted when charged particles moving faster than light pass through a particular medium, ...

Wickramasinghe, V. A., et al. (2023). Color-resolved Cherenkov imaging allows for differential signal detection in blood and melanin content. Journal of Biomedical Optics.

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.

In 1974 Stephen Hawking famously claimed that black holes should emit particles as well as absorb them. This so-called "Hawking radiation" has not yet been observed, but now a research group from ...

Some neutrino observatories, such as ANTARES at the bottom of the Mediterranean, look for Cherenkov radiation in water. IceCube uses, well, ice. Even after scientists tabulated how to find those ...

Meanwhile, we have observed something quite incredible in the data recorded by the detectors of the [High-Altitude Water Cherenkov] observatory: photons coming from a microquasar lying in our ...

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.

In 1934, Soviet physicist Pavel Cherenkov witnessed what happens when it does, after bombarding water with radiation. A blue light, now known as Cherenkov light or Cherenkov radiation, was emitted ...
