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…
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…
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…
Study of tau neutrinos and non-unitary neutrino mixing with the first six detection units of KM3NeT/ORCA
KM3NeT Collaboration, S. Aiello, A. Albert +274
Oscillations of atmospheric muon and electron neutrinos produce tau neutrinos with energies in the GeV range, which can be observed by the ORCA detector of the KM3NeT neutrino tele…
gSeaGen code by KM3NeT: an efficient tool to propagate muons simulated with CORSIKA
S. Aiello, A. Albert, A. R. Alhebsi +260
The KM3NeT Collaboration has tackled a common challenge faced by the astroparticle physics community, namely adapting the experiment-specific simulation software to work with the C…
