  1. 344. Developments in Fiber Optic Hydralight Wetmate Technology
    Sergio Mendez (SeaCon)
    06/08/2013, 09:00
    Deep-sea and Deep-ice technologies
    I will be speaking about current developments in fiber optic hydralight wetmate technology which now also incorporates electrical wetmate technologies using only 1 wetmate connector becoming a hybrid Hybralight wetmate connector. I will give an in depth presentation of how the connector works with clear internal visuals. Will go through a brief history of developments that lead to the...

    Mechanics, Deployment and Infrastructure
    During the first phase of implementation of the KM3NeT Research Infrastructure, the installation sites will be furnished with a seafloor and shore infrastructure for connection of the KM3NeT detection units with custom designed Digital Optical Modules (DOMs) for detection of the Cherenkov light of the charged particles created in neutrino-induced collisions in and in the vicinity of the...

  3. 339. Power network in large area detector networks
    Mr Eric Heine (Nikhef)

    Mechanics, Deployment and Infrastructure
    With the first phase of the implementation of the KM3NeT Research Infrastructure in the Mediterranean Sea, several design and technical choices have been made for the realization of the power network at the installation sites. Considerations for these choices - which are valid for large area detector networks in general - include the arguments for AC or DC, the behaviour of the power...

  4. 343. The Mechanics of the KM3NeT string.
    Prof. Paul Kooijman (Univ.of Amsterdam/Utrecht University/Nikhef)
    06/08/2013, 10:00
    Mechanics, Deployment and Infrastructure
    In this paper we present the measurements of two different Dyneema ropes being considered for the suspension of the optical modules in KM3NeT. Detailed tests under load both in the lab and in the deep sea will be covered as will the details of the design of the connection between ropes and optical module
