Detecting neutrino-transients with optical follow-up observations | Marek Kowalski

22 Jan 2007 | Abstract: | A novel method is presented which will enhance the sensitivity to identify neutrinos from transient sources such as Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) and core-collapse Supernovae (SNe). Triggered by the detection of high energy neutrino events from IceCube or other large scale neutrino telescopes, an optical follow-up program will allow the identification of the transient neutrino source. We show that once the follow-up program is implemented, the achievable sensitivity of IceCube to neutrinos from SNe and GRBs would increase by a factor of 2-3. The program can be realized with a small network of automated 1-2 meter telescopes and has rather modest observing time requirements. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0701618 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
