Reconstruction of SN1987a event [IMB neutrino research project]
IMB (Irvine, Michigan, Brookline), a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the University of California at Irvine, and the U.S. Department of Energy, was an experiment designed to determine the ultimate stability of matter. Using data from the PMT hits (bl003799) the neutrino interaction point and direction in the detector are shown (long purple line). The produced position (short purple line) is also shown along with its cherenkov cone hitting the walls of the detector (yellow squares).
