Abstract

Teresa Montaruli
Neutrino Astronomy

I will focus on the some of the physics topics of importance for Cherenkov neutrino telescopes. I will describe:

  • The search for cosmic sources focusing on extraction of information from neutrino telescopes with a multi-messenger strategy. Connections with cosmic rays characteristics and gammas will be made.
  • I will cover indirect searches for dark matter.
  • I will cover the experimental technique, how to evaluate its performance, the existing experiments.
If I have enough time:
  • I will cover supernova collapse searches.
  • I will cover atmospheric neutrino/muon particle physics.
