Tyce DeYoung (Michigan State University)14/09/2015, 11:00Data from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory has revealed the existence of a flux of high energy neutrinos of extraterrestrial origin, which is observed in a number of analyses spanning different energy ranges, fields of view, and neutrino flavors. The current data are consistent with an isotropic, equal-flavor flux described by a simple power law spectrum, but deviations from this simple model...Go to contribution page

maurizio spurio (University of Bologna (Italy))14/09/2015, 11:20The ANTARES experiment has been running in its final configuration since 2008. It is the largest neutrino telescope in the Northern hemisphere. After the discovery of a cosmic neutrino diffuse flux by the IceCube detector, the search for its origin has become a key mission in high-energy astrophysics. The ANTARES sensitivity is large enough to constrain the origin of the IceCube excess from...Go to contribution page

Zhan Dzhilkibaev14/09/2015, 11:40The future next-generation neutrino telescope Baikal-GVD will be km$^3$-scale array aimed at detection of astrophysical neutrino fluxes. It will have modular structure and consist of functionally independent sub-arrays – clusters of strings of optical modules. The prototyping phase of the project has been concluded in 2015 with deployment of the first cluster of Baikal-GVD in Lake Baikal. We...Go to contribution page

Prof. Kael Hanson (University of Wisconsin - Madison)14/09/2015, 12:10New groups from the astroparticle physics community have joined an enlarged IceCube Collaboration to pursue construction of a next-generation very large volume neutrino telescope at the South Pole site. This new collaboration, called the IceCube-Gen2 collaboration, hopes to bring forth an instrument that will further push the recently expanded frontiers of knowledge in the field of neutrino...Go to contribution page

rosa coniglione (INFN)14/09/2015, 12:45The discovery of a diffuse flux by the IceCube collaboration of extra-terrestrial origin from not identified sources requires a next generation neutrino telescopes with full sky coverage and good angular resolution. The KM3NeT Collaboration aims at building a research infrastructure in the depths of the Mediterranean Sea hosting a several cubic kilometre neutrino telescope. KM3NeT, in its...Go to contribution page
