Title
Discovering the Highest Energy Neutrinos with a Radio Phased Array
Abstract
The detection of high energy astrophysical neutrinos is an important step toward understanding the most energetic cosmic accelerators. The best sensitivity at the highest energies comes from detectors that look for coherent radio Cherenkov emission from neutrino interactions. I will discuss a new ground-based radio phased array design could push the energy threshold for radio detection down to overlap with the energy range probed by IceCube.
