From under the sea, #KM3NeT wishes you happy holidays!

Wow! 🤩 Look at this very nice brand-new representation of our #neutrino detector. It shows real #KM3NeT #data from the Mediterranean #deepsea in a huge physical event display in the #hallway of the #Nikhef institute in Amsterdam, The Netherlands
The ladder gives an impression of the height of display.

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!
