Long-term monitoring of the ANTARES optical module efficiencies using 40K decays in sea water: The ANTARES Collaboration

© 2018, The Author(s). Cherenkov light induced by radioactive decay products is one of the major sources of background light for deep-sea neutrino telescopes such as ANTARES. These decays are at the same time a powerful calibration source. Using data collected by the ANTARES neutrino telescope from...
