Did astronomers see a black hole explode? An 'impossible' particle that hit Earth in 2023 may tell us
"If our hypothesized dark charge is true, then we believe there could be a significant population of primordial black holes, which would be consistent with other astrophysical observations, and account for all the missing dark matter in the universe."
Ultra-High-Energy Neutrino May Signal First Glimpse of Primordial Black Hole Explosion
Physicists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst argue that an ultra-high-energy neutrino detected by the KM3NeT experiment could be the signature of an explosion of a ‘quasi-extremal primordial black hole,’ pointing toward new physics beyond the Standard Model. The post Ultra-High-Energy Neutrino May Signal First Glimpse of Primordial Black Hole Explosion appeared first on Sci.News: Breaking Science News.
Record-breaking neutrino points to exploding primordial black hole
A neutrino slammed into Earth in 2023 with so much energy that it looked almost unreal. The particle carried about 220 peta–electron volts, or PeV, making it the most energetic neutrino ever reported. That is roughly 100,000 times more energy than the highest-energy particle produced by the Large Hadron Collider. Now physicists at University of Massachusetts Amherst say the event may fit a bold explanation. In a study published in Physical Revie…
In 2023, a subatomic particle called neutrino crashed on Earth with such an amount of energy that it should have been impossible. In fact, no known source in the universe is capable of producing such energy, 100,000 times more than the most energetic particle ever produced by the Great Hadron Collider, the accelerator [...]
Could We Have Witnessed a Black Hole Explosion? Physicists at UMass Amherst
In a groundbreaking development from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, physicists have put forward a daring hypothesis that could rewrite our understanding of some of the universe’s most elusive phenomena. In 2023, a neutrino—an unimaginably tiny subatomic particle—was detected crashing into Earth with an energy level far beyond any previously recorded. This particle’s staggering energy […]
