The Askaryan Radio Array (ARA) is an ultra-high energy (UHE) cosmic neutrino detector located at the South Pole. The cosmic ray flux cut off above primary energies of 10^19.5 eV leads us to expect a UHE neutrino flux due to the GZK effect. The detection of these UHE cosmic neutrinos will add to the understanding of the sources and physics of UHE cosmic rays.
ARA uses the radio Cherenkov...

Thurs AM I - In-Ice Neutrino Main
The goal of the proposed Greenland Neutrino Observatory (GNO) is to discover and study ultra-high energy neutrinos by looking for radio emission from particle cascades induced by these neutrinos in the Greenland ice sheet. GNO will consist of an array of radio antenna stations deployed near Summit Station in central Greenland, sitting atop a 3 km deep ice sheet. Preliminary analysis of field...

Thurs AM I - In-Ice Neutrino Main
The ARIANNA experiment uses low noise, low power and inexpensive
technology to search for radio pulses emitted by extremely high energy
cosmic neutrino interactions. Three detector stations have been
deployed in the Ross Ice Shelf of Antarctica, taking both
environmental as well as radio pulse data. The stations are powered by
solar and wind generators and transfer data north via...
