Observations of the Askaryan Effect in Ice ANITA balloon payload set up to detect radio Cherenkov emission from particle showers produced when a high energy electron beam strikes a seven ton ice target. [P. W. Gorham et al. ANITA Collaboration, Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 171101 (2007)] Physical Review Letters – 26 October 2007 Volume 99 … Read more →
The Honolulu Star Bulletin A SCIENTIFIC balloon designed to make the first-ever measurements of high-energy neutrinos has completed a 35-day flight over Antarctica, said University of Hawaii professor Peter Gorham, who is leading the project. As the high-altitude balloon cruised at 120,000 feet above the Antarctic continent, 40 antennas listened for bursts of radio waves … Read more →
The Antarctic Sun The dream of unlocking neutrinos’ secrets has kept scientists tossing and turning since the subatomic particles were first theorized in the 1930s. The vision has been there, but the technology to materialize that vision has not. Three teams of scientists are now preparing to use Antarctic ice as the key to open … Read more →
November 1-15, 2006 The initial ANITA team arrived the first week of November, and the gondola build was in full swing by the 2nd week, and nearing completion at the end of that week. The major efforts have been focused on painting & silver -taping for thermal control, and starting the channel calibrations which will … Read more →
