Project description
Pushing Neutrino Physics to the Cosmic Frontier
What is Nature like at its most fundamental level? We have found answers using particle accelerators, yet ample territory remains unexplored at higher energies, ripe for discovery, but beyond their reach. Fortunately, Nature provides a way forward, via high-energy particles made by cosmic accelerators. We will harness the vast potential of cosmic neutrinos —particles with unique probing properties— to explore the highest energies. The grant will allow to recruit one postdoc and two PhD students.
