Constraints on the flux of Ultra-High Energy neutrinos from WSRT observations

S. Buitink, O. Scholten, J. Bacelar +7

Ultra-high energy (UHE) neutrinos and cosmic rays initiate particle cascades underneath the Moon's surface. These cascades have a negative charge excess and radiate Cherenkov radio…

Improved flux limits for neutrinos with energies above 10 eV from observations with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope

O. Scholten, S. Buitink, J. Bacelar +7

Particle cascades initiated by ultra-high energy (UHE) neutrinos in the lunar regolith will emit an electromagnetic pulse with a time duration of the order of nano seconds through…

The NuMoon experiment: first results

S. Buitink, J. Bacelar, R. Braun +7

The NuMoon project uses the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope to search for short radio pulses from the Moon. These pulses are created when an ultra high energy cosmic ray or ne…

Detecting UHE Cosmics & Neutrinos off the Moon; an Optimal Radio Window

O. Scholten, J. Bacelar, R. Braun +4

We show that at wavelengths comparable to the length of the shower produced by an Ultra-High Energy cosmic ray or neutrino, radio signals are an extremely efficient way to detect t…

Optimal Radio Window for the Detection of Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Rays and Neutrinos off the Moon

O. Scholten, J. Bacelar, R. Braun +4

When high-energy cosmic rays impinge on a dense dielectric medium, radio waves are produced through the Askaryan effect. We show that at wavelengths comparable to the length of the…
