ANTARES search for neutrino flares from the direction of radio-bright blazars December 3, 2021 -   In 2017, a high-energy muon neutrino detected by IceCube was found positionally coincident with the direction of a known blazar, TXS 0506 + 056, in a state of enhanced γ-ray emission. Soon after, IceCube reported compelling evidence for an…
Congratulations to KM3NeT for the new ARCA detection units ! April 16, 2021 - Au cours d'une campagne en mer qui a duré 1 semaine début avril, l'infrastructure sous-marine du site italien KM3NeT, au large de la Sicile, a été mise en place avec succès, et 5 nouvelles unités de détection ARCA ont été…
A search for neutrinos from the Tidal Disruption Event AT2019dsg with the ANTARES Telescope March 4, 2021 - DESY Science Communication Lab   In October 2019, the IceCube Collaboration detected a muon track neutrino, IC191001A, with high probability of being of astrophysical origin. Soon after, the tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2019dsg, observed by the Zwicky Transient Facility, was…

La Sapienza, Roma, Italy), member of the ANTARES and…
An updated 11-years ANTARES point-source search presented at ICRC 2019 and ANTARES data 2007-2017 released July 25, 2019 - On Saturday July, 27th, during the Neutrino Session at ICRC 2019 (Madison, USA), the ANTARES Collaboration will present the results of an updated search for cosmic point-like neutrino sources using track-like and shower-like events collected during 11 years of data taking. The…
ANTARES search on Dark Matter in the Milky Way (Erratum) May 29, 2019 - The ANTARES Collaboration has submitted an erratum to the paper “Results from the search for dark matter in the Milky Way with 9 years of data of the ANTARES neutrino telescope” [Phys. Lett. B 769 (2017) 249-254]. In the paper,…
ANTARES search for neutrinos from M77/NGC 1068 after IceCube results March 22, 2019 - The analysis of 10 years of IceCube data (IC40, IC59, IC79, IC86-1, ICII-ICVII) has recently been unblinded, unifying the muon diffuse and point source streams, and presented this week at the XVIII International Workshop on Neutrino Telescopes (Neutel 2019). The results…
ANTARES celebrates its 10 year anniversary ! June 18, 2018 - Ten years ago, the Collaboration was celebrating the completion of the ANTARES telescope during our spring collaboration meeting in Paris, with a special day on June 18th, gathering everyone who contributed to the construction. The pictures above show the collaborators,…
ANTARES search for neutrinos from TXS0506+056, reported as a source of high-energy neutrinos by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory June 12, 2018 - Two papers published this week in the journal Science have for the first time provided evidence for a known blazar as a source of high-energy neutrinos detected by the IceCube observatory. The papers are available at this address and here. This blazar, designated…
