Deep in the sea, far away from the surface, hundreds of “eyes” are scrutinising the deep sky. The light detectors of ANTARES (Astronomy with a Neutrino Telescope and Abyss Environmental Research) are hunting for high-energy neutrinos to unveil the mysteries of the Universe.
Two new clusters of optical modules of the Baikal deep underwater neutrino telescope, Baikal-GVD, were put into operation. The effective volume of the facility, which already includes five clusters, increased to 0.25 km3.
Groups in the Asia-Pacific are celebrating the latest breakthrough from the IceCube neutrino telescope which recently presented the first evidence for high-energy neutrinos from an astrophysical source.
