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

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

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

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

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.
