Prof. Daniele Fargion (ROMA1)21/06/2018, 12:20Highest energy neutrino in ICECUBE (hundred TeV or PeVs) suggested since five years the birth of a Neutrino Astronomy. However the possible pollution by atmospheric neutrino signals, in particular prompt charmed ones, might offuscate the ability to discover the main astrophysical UHE neutrino sources. Indeed up to now no AGN or GRB or galactic sharp signal have detected. A possible...Go to contribution page

Mr Marco Grassi (APC - IN2P3 - CNRS)21/06/2018, 12:40JUNO is a Liquid Scintillator Detector (LSD) currently under construction in the south of China (Jiangmen city, Guangdong province). JUNO aims to detect reactor antineutrinos at a baseline of 53 km, with the goal of determining the neutrino mass ordering and performing a sub-percent measurement of three of the neutrino oscillation parameters. Its physics programme also includes the detection...Go to contribution page

Francesco Tortorici (CT)21/06/2018, 13:10The 760 ton ICARUS T600 detector performed a successful three-year physics run at the underground LNGS laboratories, studying neutrino oscillations with the CNGS neutrino beam from CERN, and searching for atmospheric neutrino interactions. ICARUS performed a sensitive search for LSND like anomalous nu_e appearance contributing to constrain the allowed parameters to a narrow region around...Go to contribution page

Prof. Justin Vandenbroucke (University of Wisconsin)21/06/2018, 16:00The IceCube Neutrino Observatory has discovered and measured a diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux spanning energies from several TeV to several PeV. The origins of the neutrinos are still unknown despite intense investigation using a variety of multi-messenger approaches. Spectral, temporal, and spatial studies of the astrophysical neutrinos have disfavored individual source classes...Go to contribution page

Vladimir Kulikovskiy (GE)21/06/2018, 16:30The ANTARES deep sea neutrino telescope, anchored on the seabed of the Mediterranean Sea, has been continuously taking data for more than ten years. Thanks to its excellent angular resolution in both the muon channel induced by muon neutrinos and the cascade channel induced by interactions of neutrinos of all flavours ANTARES has very large sensitivity for neutrino source searches in the...Go to contribution page

Giorgio Maria Riccobene (LNS)21/06/2018, 17:00The multimessenger astronomy era has begun: combined measurement of gravitational waves, gammas and high-energy cosmic rays and neutrinos provide unprecedented tools to understand the birth and evolution of cosmic sources. Hundred kilometres South West off Capo Passero, Sicily the KM3NeT Collaboration is building the ARCA neutrino detector, formed by 230 vertical units equipped with 130...Go to contribution page

Dr Irene Sgura (BA)21/06/2018, 17:30KM3NeT is a multisite research infrastructure in the Mediterranean Sea hosting neutrino detectors. The basic element of the detectors is the detection unit. From a mechanical point of view, it is a flexible structure anchored to the seabed that allows for a staged construction of the detectors. In this talk I will review the DU mechanical components and their features, the qualification and...Go to contribution page

Mr Michael Schimp (Bergische Universität Wuppertal)21/06/2018, 17:50The surface detector (SD) of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive to neutrinos at energies in the 100 PeV to 100 EeV range. This sensitivity, together with its large acceptance, makes it a complementary detector to other neutrino telescopes, which have their peak sensitivities at lower energies. The neutrino-induced air showers that the SD of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive...Go to contribution page
