Presentation transcript:

Radiowave shower detection (GV, also) – cf optical/acoustic Basic parameters: 1)Transparency ~ 2 km vs. 40 m ice/water 2)Radio ‘coherence’  quadratic growth of signal power at >20 cm wavelengths (vs. linear for optical/PMT) 3)Now extensive experience in situ (RICE) + 3 beam tests at SLAC by GLUE/ANITA groups R Moliere

Why believe radio? Attenuation length in situ data Test beam data consistent  coherence  GHz

In situ absolute system gain calibration (~dE/E) using calibrated radio sources –RICE (gain error~3 dB) –ANITA (~ 0.5 dB) In situ reconstructed radio sources (Tx) Observation of =10 m radio coherence in coincidence w/ EAS (LOPES/KASCADE) –Signal strength~Allen formula (from 60’s)

Lower bar for radio (optical/EAS) AUGER, EUSO -geometry of inclined shower detection VERY distinctive Contained events better- reconstructed than events outside detector

Efforts + Ideas RICE, ANITA (In progress) LOPES, CODALEMA, South-Pole-effort-with- which-I’m-not-very-familiar (Jeff Peterson,CMU) –Air shower detection AURA, SALSA, ARIANNA –In planning/seed-funding ROAST + other stationary elevated options Europa (3-10 km thick ice [+salts and/or sulfuric 91 K) Surface Wave coupling of radio waves (evanescent solutions of Maxwell’s eqns.)

ARIANNA – ice characterization (steve barwick talk)

Air shower detection of EAS (Heino Falcke, plenary) Threshold~100 PeV, LOPES must be externally triggered by ground detectors. 5 highly inclined events in 2004 data.

SALSA

Salt Experimental site on continental US? Surface layer+water  ‘insulating barrier’, but: Uncertain salt properties, site-to-site Lab measurements encouraging but not fully fleshed out (L atten ~50 m  1 km) High Drilling Costs –(~1M/hole vs. 50K/12 cm, 1 km deep hole at Pole)

Upper limits (Saltzberg)

Upper limits (Hussain) Cautions: 1) presented upper limits can `float’ horizontally (no energy resolution), 2) different model parameters used for different modes, 3) 90% vs. 95% C.L. limits, 4) results depend on binning

Do we need multiple radio expts? Threshold~experimental scale (coincidence trigger requirement) –10 13 eV threshold (10 4 elements, 20 m spacing, surface array [Greenland]) viewing upcoming Sgr*A neutrinos –100 m spacing  Dense packed expt (RICE, e.g.); showers typically several km distant  eV –38 km height; showers typically 100 km distant  eV threshold (ANITA)

Atm. Nu:IceCube = X:radio; X NOT air showers RICE ANITA 

PMT noise:IC=Thermal noise:radio Band-limited response from noise ~ band-limited response from signal Probability for a false trigger in one N-sample waveform~Nexp(-x 2 /2  2 ), assuming Gaussian noise spectrum, with x=trigger threshold criterion (2.5-sigma, e.g.). –GLUE/ANITA  Gaussian –RICE  non-Gaussian tails: x=5, N=8192  P=0.03/channel –For a big array, thermal noise is statistically characterizable: vertices cluster within array, with vertex distribution determined by coincidence window –Caution: most expts. Operating very close to the ‘edge’!

RICE trigger rate(threshold)

Trigger multiplicity vs. Reconstruction multiplicity Trigger: Minimum of 4-hits needed to solve ct 0 =(x,y,z) –(quadratic ambiguity) (RICE) biggest problem = N ‘real’ hits + M `noise’ hits –  minimum hit multiplicity from 4  5 to `isolate’ noise hit via residuals, e.g.

Acoustic compared to Radio +)10 km L atten ? +) 20 khz-50 khz digitization and signal transmission  can do all triggering/DAQ on surface with no high-frequency signal losses +) Ray tracing insulates acoustic waves produced at surface from interior +) No battle with RF backgrounds 0) both polarizations -) 1/f noise forces threshold up to eV BEST IF YOU CAN DO BOTH!

Secular * Grail: Simultaneous obs.! GZK evts / hybrid dector (c. 2010) N.B: coincidences offer lower thresholds (50%?), enhanced event reconstruction (Justin Vandenbrouke WG talk tomorrow) * (an obscure reference to local KS politics; not crucial to understanding talk as a whole)
