Detection of MeV supernova neutrinos with the KM3NeT neutrino telescope
Core Collapse Supernovae (CCSN) are explosive phenomena that may occur at the end of the life of massive stars, releasing over 99% of the energy through emission of MeV neutrinos. Neutrinos are believed to play an important role in the not yet fully understood explosion mechanism. Only 24 SN neutrin...
