This invisible particle is considered one of the most powerful neutrinos ever discovered. The research revealed that this particle comes from galactic systems with giant black holes that can send energy jets towards the Earth.
Neutrinos are known to be particles that can pass through an entire planet almost unobstructed. The neutrino detected in the Mediterranean in 2023 aroused great interest in the scientific world because it had an energy level exceeding all previously observed neutrinos.
Hundreds of scientists conducted a detailed investigation to determine the source of this particle. The results of the study were published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics.
According to the researchers, the source of the neutrino in question is blazars. Blazars are known as galaxies that have giant black holes at their centers and shoot powerful jets of energy towards Earth.
