Description

Detection of cosmological neutrinos with energies in the energy range 10 PeV - 10 Eev requires efficient detection of signals created in large volumes of matter. A cost effectid method is readout of fast radiopulses from the Askaryan effect caused by neutrno interactions in ice. The ARIANNA project proposes to instrument 1300 km^2 of the Ross Ice shelf with readout stations. I will report on the status of the prototype work and reliability tests done for the ARIANNA project.
