Detection potential to point-like neutrino sources with the NEMO-km3 telescope
arXiv:astro-ph/0608514 · doi:10.1007/s10509-007-9425-8
Abstract
The NEMO Collaboration is conducting an R&D activity towards the construction of a Mediterranean km3 neutrino telescope. In this work, we present the results of Monte Carlo simulation studies on the capability of the proposed NEMO telescope to detect and identify point-like sources of high energy muon neutrinos.
