An unusual ghost particle is spotted by a deep-sea telescope in the Mediterranean
NEW YORK (AP) — A neutrino detector submerged in the Mediterranean Sea has sniffed out the most energetic ghost particle yet, scientists reported Wednesday. The newly detected neutrino is around 30 times more active than the previous recordholder. Scientists think it came from outside the Milky Way galaxy but its exact source remains a mystery.
Scientists detect record-breaking ‘ghost particle’ in the Mediterranean Sea
A huge detector in the Mediterranean Sea spotted the most energetic neutrino from space to date. The particle could shed light on the universe’s most extreme phenomena.
High-energy cosmic neutrino detected under Mediterranean Sea
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 energy in another important step toward understanding some of the universe's most cataclysmic events.
‘Ultrahigh Energy’ Neutrino Found With a Telescope Under the Sea
The team announced its “ultrahigh energy” neutrino on Wednesday, in a paper published in the journal Nature. The finding brings physicists and astronomers one step closer to understanding just what, exactly, is out there thrusting particles to such unfathomable speeds.
The Most Energetic Neutrino Ever Seen Makes a Mediterranean Splash
A “ghost particle” discovered by a detector in the Mediterranean carried 30 times more energy than any neutrino observed to date
Most energetic neutrino ever found on Earth detected at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea
Physicists have detected the highest-energy 'ghost particle' ever felt on Earth, with nearly 100 times more energy than any neutrino previously detected.
