Description

In this seminar, I will present the Trinity's pioneering efforts in Earth-skimming tau neutrino detection. I will delve into the evolution of the Trinity project focusing on the Demonstrator phase, detailing its concept, development, and deployment. I will discuss its operational challenges and highlights the instrument's sensitivity and its potential to detect transient sources like NGC 1068 and TXS 0506+056. I will outline further steps for both the Demonstrator and the broader Trinity project, envisioning a future of enhanced neutrino astronomy.
