| Résumé : | We are developing an antenna array to be installed in boreholes extending 200 m below the ice surface at the geographic South Pole. ARA will cover a fiducial area of 150 km 2, chosen to ensure the detection of the flux of neutrinos guaranteed by observations of the GZK cutoff by HiRes and the Pierre Auger Observatory. The first components of ARA were installed during the austral summer of 2010-2011. After three years of operation, the full array sensitivity will exceed that of any other instrument in the 0.1-10 EeV energy range by an order of magnitude. The primary goal of the ARA experiment is to establish the absolute cosmogenic neutrino flux through a modest number of events. This talk will describe the array, its science goals, and give the current status of the project. |
