KM3NeT broadcast optical data transport system
(2023-02-01)
Article
Open AccessThe optical data transport system of the KM3NeT neutrino telescope at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea will provide more than 6000 optical modules in the detector arrays with a point-to-point optical connection to the ... -
Cross-sensory interference assessment after exposure to noise shows different effects in the blue crab olfactory and sound sensing capabilities
(Elsevier, 2023-05)
Article
Open AccessUnderwater noise pollution is an increasing threat to marine ecosystems. Marine animals use sound in communication and orientation processes. The introduction of anthropogenic noise in their habitat can interfere with sound ... -
The search for high-energy neutrinos coincident with fast radio bursts with the ANTARES neutrino telescope
(Oxford University Press, 2019-01-01)
Article
Open AccessIn the past decade, a new class of bright transient radio sources with millisecond duration has been discovered. The origin of these so-called fast radio bursts (FRBs) is still a mystery, despite the growing observational ... -
Limits on the nuclearite flux using the ANTARES neutrino telescope
(2023-01-01)
Article
Open AccessIn this work, a search for nuclearites of strange quark matter by using nine years of ANTARES data taken in the period 2009–2017 is presented. The passage through matter of these particles is simulated taking into account ... -
Search for spatial correlations of neutrinos with ultra-high-energy cosmic rays
(Institute of Physics (IOP), 2022-08-01)
Article
Open AccessFor several decades, the origin of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) has been an unsolved question of highenergy astrophysics. One approach for solving this puzzle is to correlate UHECRs with high-energy neutrinos, ... -
The odontocete ear canal-associated lymphoid tissue (ECALT) and lymph nodes: morphological and pathological description with immuno-phenotypic characterisation
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-09-01)
Article
Open AccessA changing marine environment with emerging natural and anthropogenic stressors challenges the marine mammal immune system. The skin and adnexa form a first protective barrier in the immune response, although this is still ... -
The KM3NeT multi-PMT optical module
(2022-07-01)
Article
Open AccessThe optical module of the KM3NeT neutrino telescope is an innovative multi-faceted large area photodetection module. It contains 31 three-inch photomultiplier tubes in a single 0.44 m diameter pressure-resistant glass ... -
A decade of underwater noise research in support of the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive
(2022-09-01)
Article
Open AccessUnderwater noise from human activities is now widely recognised as a threat to marine life. Nevertheless, legislation which directly addresses this source of pollution is lacking. The first (and currently only) example ... -
Multiple characteristics of precipitation inferred from wind profiler radar Doppler spectra
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-10-09)
Article
Open AccessA methodology to process radar wind profiler Doppler spectra is presented and implemented for an UHF Degreane PCL1300 system. First, double peak signal detection is conducted at each height level and, then, vertical ... -
Nanobeacon: a time calibration device for the KM3NeT neutrino telescope
(2022-10-01)
Article
Open AccessThe KM3NeT Collaboration is currently constructing a multi-site high-energy neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea consisting of matrices of pressure-resistant glass spheres, each holding a set of 31 small-area ... -
Commercial cuttlefish exposed to noise from offshore windmill construction show short-range acoustic trauma
(2022-11)
Article
Open AccessThe installation of marine renewable energy devices (MREDs, wind turbines and converters of wave, tidal and ocean thermal energy) has increased quickly in the last decade. There is a lack of knowledge concerning the effects ... -
Search for secluded dark matter towards the Galactic Centre with the ANTARES neutrino telescope
(2022-06-01)
Article
Open AccessSearches for dark matter (DM) have not provided any solid evidence for the existence of weakly interacting massive particles in the GeV-TeV mass range. Coincidentally, the scale of new physics is being pushed by collider ...
