Search for cosmic neutrinos with the first KM3NeT data The DOMs are oriented along 200-700m long vertical lines, called detection units. The KM3NeT telescope detects the Cherenkov light emitted by the secondary particles produced in neutrino interactions using an array of thousands of sensitive 3 inch photo-multiplier tubes housed in 17 inch pressure resistant glass spheres, digital-optical-modules (DOMs), together with electronics. In the domain of particle physics the properties of neutrinos will be investigated, in particular the unknown neutrino mass hierarchy. With the data, scientists will look for the astrophysical sources of neutrinos such as supernovae, colliding stars or gamma-ray bursts. The KM3NeT collaboration is constructing a new generation neutrino telescope with a volume of several cubic kilometers (final configuration) in the deep waters of the Mediterranean Sea. 5.5.1 KM3NeT (1): Photon counting in KM3NeT.5.3.5 ATLAS (5): De lange staart van het Higgs boson.5.3.4 ATLAS (4): Higgs productie in Run-2 van de LHC.5.3.3 ATLAS (3): Simulations / Quality tests for the ATLAS High-Luminosity LHC Upgrade.5.3.2 ATLAS (2): Dark-matter-motivated searches for supersymmetric particles at the LHC.5.3.1 ATLAS (1): Searching for new physics with the Higgs and W bosons.5.2.3 XAMS - a baby dark matter detector.5.2.1 Neutrinoless double beta decay sensitivity study in future dark matter detectors.5.1 Extreme Astronomy – Preparing for CTA, the Next-Generation Gamma-Ray Observatory.4.5.6 Determination of Inter-DOM Distances using Hit Coincidences in KM3NeT Data.4.5.5 Study of Optical Properties of Sea Water using Hit Coincidences in MC Data.
