| Zusammenfassung |
| KM3NeT is an international consortium involving more than 300 scientists from
10 EU countries. Its main objective is the construction of a multi-km3
high-energy neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea that will also host
an interdisciplinary observatory for marine sciences. KM3NeT has been
included in the roadmap of the European Strategy Forum of Research
Infrastructures (ESFRI). Very high energy neutrinos are important messengers
to study non-thermal phenomena in the Universe. The pioneering ANTARES, NEMO
and NESTOR underwater neutrino telescope projects include the extensive R&D
knowledge base behind the KM3NeT project. A Technical Design Report has been
published that describes the technological solutions chosen for the
detector. The present status of the project is presented. |
