The AMANDA-II Neutrino-Telescope

The AMANDA-II telescope at the South Pole is constructed of 677 optical modules at 19 strings. We describe the observation of atmospheric neutrinos with the first stage 10-string detector AMANDA-B10, which establishes AMANDA as a working neutrino telescope. The expected performance for the AMANDA-II...

Description
Summary:The AMANDA-II telescope at the South Pole is constructed of 677 optical modules at 19 strings. We describe the observation of atmospheric neutrinos with the first stage 10-string detector AMANDA-B10, which establishes AMANDA as a working neutrino telescope. The expected performance for the AMANDA-II detector is discussed.
