particle physics

a, Side and top views of the event. The reconstructed trajectory of the muon is shown as a red line, along with an artist’s representation of the Cherenkov light cone. The hits of individual PMTs are represented by spheres stacked along the direction of the PMT orientations. Only the first five hits on each PMT are shown. As indicated in the legend, the spheres are coloured according to the detection time relative to the first triggered hit. The size of the spheres is proportional to the number of photons detected by the corresponding PMT. The locations of the secondary cascades, discussed in the Supplementary Material, are indicated by the black spheres along the muon trajectory. The north direction is indicated by a red arrow. A 100-m scale and the Eiffel Tower (330 m height, 125 m base width) are shown for size comparison. b, Zoomed-in view of the optical modules that are close to the first two observed secondary showers in the event. Here light-blue spheres represent hits that arrive within −5 to 25 ns of the expected Cherenkov arrival times.
