为了补充目前正在南极建造的冰立方中微子望远镜,三个地中海中微子望远镜项目ANTARES、NEMO和NESTOR联合起来,在地中海开发、建造和运行一个公里^3级中微子望远镜。自2006年2月以来,在为期3年的欧盟资助的设计研究框架内研究了这种探测器的技术规格和性能。2009年将发布一份技术设计报告,为探测器的建造奠定基础。下文介绍了设计研究的现状,并讨论了技术挑战的解决方案。
To complement the IceCube neutrino telescope currently under construction at the South Pole, the three Mediterranean neutrino telescope projects ANTARES, NEMO and NESTOR have joined forces to develop, construct and operate a km^3-scale neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea. Since February 2006, the technical specifications and performance of such a detector are studied in the framework of a 3-year EU-funded Design Study. In 2009 a technical design report will be released laying the foundations for the construction of the detector. In the following, the current status of the Design Study is presented and examples of solutions for the technical challenges are discussed.
