First detection of an ultra-high-energy neutrino12 February 2025
The international KM3NeT collaboration has just detected a neutrino that is thirty times more energetic than any previously detected anywhere in the world.
This exceptional discovery opens up new perspectives for understanding extreme energy phenomena in the Universe and the origin of cosmic rays.
This is a remarkable result from the KM3NeT telescope, a gigantic detector being built at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. The results were published in the journal Nature on 12 February 2025.
