A blazar may contain dark matter of land

A higher energy particle found to flow the ground left scientists flummoxed since it was discovered. While many researchers believe that the particle is an unusual neutrino, some now suggest that it is something more thing: a fragment of the darkest thing traveling to the cosmos.
KM3NET DEDECTOC, on Italy’s coastline, saw This “impossible” neutrino Of 2023 while it was still built. The fragment of the question is greater proportions, 35 times louder than anything previously seen. Where it comes from a mystery, with possible sources including a galaxy with an active central black hole known as a blazar, or a background of the neutrinos of high energy spoils the universe.
Bhupal Dev In Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, and his companions have another idea. They suggested the event that cannot be a neutrino, but instead of a black fragment object crashing our planet from a blazar. “It opened a new way you could try Dark Dark,” he said. “We can change the neutrino telescopes in the details of the dark.”
Neutrino detectors have a hard work to do because these particles are very small and almost misguided, rarely interact with the cosmos. When they arrived on the ground, sometimes crash atoms, making a fragment called Moon that can be selected in neutrino details such as KM3NET and ICECUBE in the South Pole.
Icecube saw the evidence of hundreds of cosmic neutrinos since 2011, but there was no such thing as discovering km3net. That is confused, because any source of KM3net sees, IceCube should also see it.
DO says that if the future fragment is dark and not a neutrino, it can explain this mystery. The shallow old passage of the future particle means that it should travel more than the world to reach KM3NET than IceCube, growing once scattered in a Munto. “The dark thing went through many things on earth,” says De, “and we can explain why it doesn’t see it in the icecube.”
The particle made by a blazar and then shot in a beam. De de-favored this idea because the proton-energy protons of a blazar are more efficient to move their energy into the dark matter than neutrinos, he said. The majority of other events found in KM3NET and ICECUBE may still be neutrinos.
Not everyone is convinced. “From the perspective of an occam’s razor, it may be an ordinary neutrino unique to strength,” as And hooper At the University of Wisconsin-Madison. However, if right, give it a procedure to find and study the black object particles, which never seen before. “Everyone will be happy if these machines can study not only neutrinos but also black things,” Hooper said.
Shirley Li At the University of California, Irvine, says that idea can be tested in the future, as any future Dark Darkect should recognize two particles from a signal. “That’s possible try, but in this powerful change of monon is very difficult,” he said.
