ANTARES Status Report

چکیده
The ANTARES Collaboration is building a neutrino telescope 2400 m below the Mediterranean sea close to the Southern French coast. The site is already linked to the shore station by a 40 km-long electro-optical cable (EOC) which transmits power and data. A prototype line and an instrumentation line for monitoring environmental parameters have been successfully deployed and connected to the EOC via the junction box, using the IFREMER manned submarine. The Collaboration, after years of dedicated R&D and deployments of prototype lines, is now ready to deploy the detector starting in spring 2004.

The AMADEUS system is integrated in the ANTARES neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea and aims for the investigation of acoustic particle detection techniques in the deep sea. Installed at a depth of more than 2000m, the acoustic sensors of AMADEUS are using piezo-ceramic elements for the broad-band recording of acoustic signals with frequencies ranging up to 125 kHz. AMADEUS consists of ...
