Abstract content
Cosmic Ray Tau Neutrino Telescope (CRTNT) is designed to detect tau lepton showers initiated from Earth-skimming tau neutrinos. A potential site is located at Balikun, Xinjiang, China. Two CRTNT Cerenkov imaging telescopes are installed at Yangbajing, Tibet (4300m a.s.l.) near the ARGO-YBJ RPC carpet detector, with which coincident observation of cosmic ray showers above 10^14 eV is performed for telescope testing. Detector status and operational results are reported in this paper.
