Testing Heavy Dark Matter Decay as the Origin of KM3-230213A
KM3NeT Collaboration, O. Adriani, J. A. Aguilar +287
This work explores the hypothesis that the ultra-high-energy neutrino event KM3-230213A originates from the decay of a heavy dark matter particle with a mass above PeV scale. The a…
Constraining gamma-ray burst parameters with the first ultra-high energy neutrino event KM3-230213A
KM3NeT Collaboration, O. Adriani, A. Albert +278
Context: The detection of the highest energy neutrino observed to date by KM3NeT, with an estimated energy of 220 PeV, opens up new possibilities for the study and identification o…
Atmospheric neutrino constraints on Lorentz invariance violation with the first six detection units of KM3NeT/ORCA
KM3NeT Collaboration, O. Adriani, A. Albert +294
Lorentz invariance is a fundamental symmetry underlying both the Standard Model of particle physics and General Relativity. Testing its validity provides a direct means of searchin…
Optimizing the potential of KM3NeT in detecting core-collapse supernovae
KM3NeT Collaboration, O. Adriani, A. Albert +285
Core-collapse supernovae mark the end of life of massive stars. However, despite their importance in astrophysics, their underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Neutrinos that emerge…
Unveiling gravitational waves from core-collapse supernovae with MUSE
Alessandro Veutro, Irene Di Palma, Marco Drago +4
The core collapse of a massive star at the end of its life can give rise to one of the most powerful phenomena in the Universe. Because of violent mass motions that take place duri…
Search for an eV-scale sterile neutrino with the first six detection units of KM3NeT/ORCA
KM3NeT Collaboration, O. Adriani, A. Albert +285
The existence of an eV-scale sterile neutrino has been proposed to explain several anomalous experimental results obtained over the course of the past 25 years. The first search fo…
