Summary: | The ANITA (ANtarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna) experiment is a balloon-borne neutrino telescope which consists of an array of 32 broad-band horn antennas. It successfully completed a 35 day flight over Antarctica during the 2006-2007 austral summer. The primary goal of ANITA is to search for astrophysical neutrinos with energies E > 10(19)eV by detecting radio Cherenkov signals from neutrino induced showers in the Antarctic ice. We present preliminary results from ongoing analyses of ANITA data. |
