Could Primordial Black Holes Explain That Mysterious Neutrino?
Could a Primordial Black Hole Explain the Mysterious Neutrino? A recent stir in astroparticle physics centers on a single, exceptionally energetic neutrino detected by KM3NeT, a network of underwater neutrino detectors in the Mediterranean. In February, KM3NeT announced the highest-energy neutrino observed to date. A new MIT-Caltech study offers a provocative idea: a primordial black…

Could a Primordial Black Hole Explain the Mysterious Neutrino?
A New Link Between Neutrinos and Primordial Black Holes The KM3NeT Collaboration, a network of neutrino detectors based in the Mediterranean, announced in February that they had detected the highest-energy neutrino yet observed. In a bold interpretation, researchers from MIT have proposed that such an ultrahigh-energy neutrino could be the product of Hawking radiation emitted…

Could a Primordial Black Hole Explain That Mysterious Neutrino?
A mystery from the deep cosmos: ultra-high-energy neutrinos In a field fascinated by seemingly ghostly particles, a buzzing question remains: can the universe’s most energetic neutrinos be explained by a tiny, primordial black hole? The KM3NeT collaboration, a Mediterranean network of neutrino detectors, revealed a record-breaking high-energy neutrino, while IceCube in Antarctica has spotted several…
