Yes! we have installed a second 'node' for connection of detection units in the #ORCA seafloor network! A complex operation executed by ship crews, ROV operators and dedicated #KM3NeT teams on board and in the control station on the shore.
Congratulations and many thanks to all of them!

Last week in Brussels our funding authorities signed an agreement establishing the #KM3NeT AISBL
Serious stuff!
The #AISBL provides us with a formal and internationally recognised legal entity as a non-profit organisation building, operating and exploiting the KM3NeT observatory.

Juande participated in the signature of the AISBL agreement, representing the University of Valencia in this historical moment.
Open Symposium sulla fisica delle particelle.I neutrini spia della nuova fisica, dalla materia alle stelle, secondo Mezzetto (Infn) ci 'indicano l'esistenza di particelle sconosciute'. I neutrini, le particelle più sfuggenti e allo stesso tempo le più abbondanti dell'universo, sono la spia del fatto che manca qualcosa al Modello Standard, la teoria di ...

The KM3NeT AISBL was prepared during the KM3NeT-Infradev2 project, supported by the EU (Grant Agreement no. 101079679)
Thank you Europe!
A new #KM3NeT paper! About how, in real time, we filter our raw data.
The design of the filter, its purity or how well background is removed, the computing capacity needed, its efficiency in terms of effective detector volume.
It is all explained in https://www.km3net.org/the-online-data-filter-for-the-km3net-neutrino-telescopes/
Enjoy reading!
Ever wondered how KM3NeT’s #OpticalModules are built? It’s an elaborate, multi-step process to create these pressure-resistant spheres packed with 31 photomultipliers, power & data electronics, and calibration tools like compasses and nanobeacons.
Last week, KM3NeT collaborators gathered at the newly inaugurated #CAPACITY lab in #Caserta for the 2nd Optical Modules Integration Workshop.

Today, on World Creativity and Innovation Day, we celebrate our engineers and technicians for their creative and innovative solution for the deployment of our detection units with optical modules in the deep sea.

This week the third #KM3NeT Town Hall Meeting took place in the School of Physics of Les Houches🇫🇷. Experimentalists and theorists from the field of #neutrino #astronomy exchanged ideas and built new collaborations.
Thank you to all for making this event a success!

Today, we celebrate #WorldQuantumDay
Everyday, we study the #quantum mechanical phenomenon of #neutrino #oscillations with the #ORCA detector of #KM3NeT
One day, we searched for quantum #Decoherence in neutrino oscillations
We wish you Happy World Quantum Day!

@cataquark Thanks for pointing to this paper. It is unfortunate that it is not Open Access. The #KM3NeT Collaboration is committed to open science and thus open access to al its papers.

In een diepe afgrond in de Middellandse Zee op 80 kilometer van Kaap Passero, de zuidwestelijke punt van Sicilië, bouwt men al jaren aan een nieuwe, enorme telescoop van een kubieke kilometer, een project van meer dan 360 wetenschappers, ingenieurs, technici en studenten van 68 instituten uit 21 lan..
Retour en douceur sur la détection exceptionnelle d’un neutrino d’ultra-haute énergie
https://next.ink/170416/retour-en-douceur-sur-la-detection-exceptionnelle-dun-neutrino-dultra-haute-energie/
Une coalition internationale annonce la détection d’un neutrino d’ultra-haute énergie grâce au télescope #KM3NeT installé au fond de la mer Méditerranée. […]
Ils sont très difficiles à détecter. La solution : faire en sorte que le neutrino interagisse pour se transformer en muon. Ce dernier se propage alors « dans l’eau plus vite que la lumière, émet un cône de lumière bleutée, la lumière Tcherenkov ».
Attendez, comment ça plus vite que la lumière ? Rien ne va plus vite que la lumière !? C’est vrai… mais cette affirmation est valable dans le vide.

Detecten a la Mediterrà nia el neutrà més energètic de la història, una finestra a l’univers desconegut
Detectat el neutrà còsmic més energètic mai observat: què és i com ens ajudarà a entendre l'Univers?
Un detector en el fondo del Mediterráneo capta el neutrino de mayor energÃa jamás observado.
La energÃa de esta 'partÃcula fantasma' se encuentra en un rango inexplorado hasta ahora, 30 veces por encima de cualquier observación anterior, lo que abre una nueva ventana para estudiar el universo
