Ultra-High-Energy Neutrino Hints at New Physics
Season 1
Episode 34
Published 1 month, 4 weeks ago
Description
An ultra-high-energy neutrino detected by KM3NeT is challenging observations from IceCube and may point to physics beyond the Standard Model.
In this episode, we explore the sterile neutrino hypothesis, how interactions with Earth’s matter could explain the signal, and why neutrino telescopes are probing energy scales unreachable in laboratories.
