Retrofitted Digital Optical Modules for the Radio Detection of Neutrinos in Ice

  • 1. Penn State University, University Park, PA (United States)

Description

The Askaryan Underice Radio Array (AURA) is a proposed next-generation radio neutrino detector for the South Pole, which succeeds the existing Radio Ice Cherenkov Experiment (RICE). In the 2006/7 IceCube deployment season, AURA will co-deploy new radio antennas. I describe the Digital Optical Module (DRM), which will incorporate triggering and data-handling in-ice, using both IceCube and radio technology
