Implementation and first results of the KM3NeT real-time core-collapse supernova neutrino search
The KM3NeT research infrastructure is unconstruction in the Mediterranean Sea. KM3NeT will study atmospheric and astrophysical neutrinos with two multi-purpose neutrino detectors, ARCA and ORCA, primarily aimed at GeV–PeV neutrinos. Thanks to the multi-photomultiplier tube design of the digital opti...

The KM3NeT research infrastructure is unconstruction in the Mediterranean Sea.

This potential is already exploitable with the first detection units deployed in the sea.
