Funded Activity Summary

Ultra High Energy Cosmic Ray and Neutrino Astronomy using Radio Telescopes. There will be an increase in Australian visibility in the high energy astrophysics community and stronger links between and within the fields of radio astronomy and high energy astrophysics in Australia, and internationally. This project will enhance Australian participation in the international Square Kilometre Array. By making observations using the Australia Telescope we may discover the first UHE neutrino - this would have huge impact and prestige for Australia. The technology developed resulting from this project will contribute to Australia's IT base.
