Abstract
A neutrino burst was observed in the Kamiokande II detector on 23 February, 7:35:35 UT (±1 min) during a time interval of 13 sec. The signal consisted of 11 electron events of energy 7.5 to 36 MeV, of which the first two point back to the Large Magellanic Cloud with angles 18°±18° and 15°±27°.
