Physicists Think They Saw a Black Hole Explode
Black holes are born from the explosive deaths of stars. But can black holes themselves explode? Nobody knows for sure — but if they can, a team of scientists argue they may have spotted evidence of such a catastrophe taking place. Their study, published in Physical Review Letters, suggests that the impossibly powerful collision of a subatomic particle called a neutrino into the Earth detected in 2023 could be explained by the explosion of a spe…
In 2023, the KM3NeT deep-sea neutrino telescope, deployed on the floor of the Mediterranean Sea, detected a neutrino with a colossal energy of 220 PeV. This particle was one of the most powerful ever detected by humanity: its energy potential is a billion times greater than that of typical solar neutrinos and is unattainable even by the power of the Large Hadron Collider. This incident, designated KM3-230213A,... The post "Detection of a Rare Ne…
