Title:The radio technique and the exploration of the extreme energy universe
Abstract:While radio detection has been championed as a technique for the observation of UHE neutrino interactions since the 1960s, implementation challenges have so far precluded observation. Recent improvements in radio techniques permit affordable instrumentation for tera-ton size detectors capable of measuring statistically signficant numbers of GZK neutrinos. Such a detector opens up a whole new window for observation of our universe at extremely high energies.
