Description

Simulation and reconstruction strategies for radio neutrino detectors

After successes in the radio detection of cosmic rays, a variety of experiments have been proposed to employ the radio technique to search for neutrinos at energies of 10 PeV and beyond. In parallel to experimental efforts, modern simulation and reconstruction tools are being developed.

The community will profit from starting coordinated efforts. We will meet for three days at DESY to discuss simulations, reconstructions, and experimental requirements derived from this.

Important dates:

Official registration will start in late March. Don't hesitate to contact the local organizers.
