Abstract content
The balloon-borne ANITA neutrino telescope completed a successful 35-day
flight during the 2006-2007 austral summer. The primary goal of ANITA is to
search for evidence of ultra high-energy neutrinos (E > 10^19 eV) interacting
in the Antarctic ice sheets. In this paper, we present preliminary results of the
simulated sensitivity of ANITA, incorporating the actual flight path, geographic
and vertical temperature dependence of ice, and flight trigger conditions.
Results are compared to standard neutrino flux models.
