The discovery was made by an international collaboration led by Michigan State University and Technical University of Munich researchers at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory in Antarctica. The team announced its findings on Nov. 3 in an online webinar and will publish its study Nov. 4 in the journalVal OsowskiAs part of the IceCube Collaboration, Michigan State researchers are using neutrinos to probe the inner depths of an active galaxy.
