The ARIANNA concept utilizes the Ross Ice Shelf near the coast of Antarctica to increase the sensitivity to cosmogenic neutrinos by roughly an order of magnitude when compared to the sensitivity of existing detectors and those under construction. Therefore, ARIANNA can test a wide variety of scenarios for GZK neutrino production, and probe for physics beyond the standard model by measuri ... More

A promising method for the detection of UHE neutrinos is the Lunar Cherenkov technique, which utilises Earth-based radio-telescopes to detect the coherent Cherenkov radiation emitted when one of these particles interacts in the outer layers of the Moon. The LUNASKA project aims to overcome the technological limitations of past experiments to utilise the next generation of radio-telescopes ... More

Astrophysical neutrinos in the EeV range (particularly those generated by the interaction of cosmic rays with the microwave background) promise to be a valuable tool to study astrophysics and particle physics at the highest energies. Much could be learned from temporal, spectral, and angular distributions of ~100 events, which could be collected by a detector with ~100 km^3 effective volume i ... More

The EEE (Extreme Energy Event) Project is an extensive air shower experiment devoted to the study of very high energy events through the detection at ground of the muon component of the shower. The detectors are installed inside many Italian High Schools, involving students in the experiment. The detector used is a tracking telescope made of 3 planes of Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC ... More

Most ultra-high energy neutrino experiments using ice as a target medium rely on the Askaryan effect (coherent impulsive radio Cherenkov radiation from the charge asymmetry in an electromagnetic shower). This effect was measured with the Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA) experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) in June 2006. The showers were produced by 28. ... More
