Neutrino Astronomy from the Deep Ocean: The Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment

• Elisa Resconi (TU München)

Room: Lecture Theatre The field of high-energy neutrino astronomy is developing rapidly. IceCube and KM3NeT have provided exciting initial evidence of cosmic neutrino sources and single events at the energy frontier. In this talk, I will review some of the recent results from these experiments and discuss their implications for the next generation of neutrino telescopes. I will then introduce the Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment (P-ONE), which is now entering its first demonstration phase in the deep Northeast Pacific. I will report on recent progress in instrumentation and the operation of kilometre-scale mooring lines. Finally, I will discuss the advantages of incorporating a neutrino telescope into a multidisciplinary ocean observatory and demonstrate how AI-based optimisation is being employed to design the future large-scale array.
