ARA (Askaryan Radio Array)

The Askaryan Radio Array is a radio detector array embedded deep in the Antarctic ice near the South Pole. It searches for ultra-high energy neutrinos by detecting brief radio pulses generated when neutrinos interact with the ice. ARA plays a key role in opening a new observational window into the high-energy universe.


GENETIS (Genetically Evolving NEuTrIno TeleScopes)

GENETIS focuses on optimizing the design of neutrino detectors through evolutionary algorithms. By simulating and evolving antennas and detector configurations, GENETIS aims to discover new, efficient layouts for radio-based observatories targeting ultra-high energy neutrinos.


PUEO (Payload for Ultrahigh Energy Observations)

PUEO is a balloon-borne experiment designed to detect ultra-high energy neutrinos and cosmic rays by capturing the radio pulses they emit when interacting with Antarctic ice. As the next-generation successor to ANITA, PUEO features enhanced sensitivity, a modernized payload, and a broader frequency range to probe the most energetic particles in the universe.


RET (Radar Echo Telescope)

The Radar Echo Telescope is a pioneering experiment exploring radar-based techniques for detecting ultra-high energy neutrinos. When a neutrino interacts with ice, it produces a particle cascade that may reflect a radar pulse. RET tests this concept with the goal of establishing radar as a scalable method for neutrino detection across vast ice volumes.
