Description
Summary:9th International Workshop on Acoustic and Radio EeV Neutrino Detection Activities, ARENA2022, Santiago de Compostela, Spain, 7 Jun 2022 - 10 Jun 2022; Proceedings of Science / International School for Advanced Studies (ARENA2022), 057 (2023). doi:10.22323/1.424.0057 ... : Building on the success of IceCube at the South Pole, the next generation experiment IceCube- Gen2 is taking shape. Next to an extension of the optical array, further developing the optical detector learning for the IceCube-Upgrade currently in preparation, IceCube-Gen2 is planned to feature a large in-ice radio array targeting neutrinos beyond PeV energies. This radio array will build on heritage from many former and existing radio neutrino experiments. It will dominate the sensitivity of IceCube-Gen2 at EeV energies, improving at least an order of magnitude in sensitivity over existing arrays. IceCube-Gen2 will also feature a much enlarged surface array, including in-air radio antennas targeting air showers. This contribution will highlight the current status of IceCube-Gen2 with a focus on the in-ice radio array. ...
