Commissioning and Performance of the Trinity Demonstrator
read the original abstract
The Trinity Demonstrator is a proof of concept prototype for the Trinity Neutrino Observatory, which is sensitive to astrophysical neutrinos above PeV energies. The Demonstrator is a one-square meter class imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope deployed on Frisco Peak, Utah, and remotely operated. The light-collection surface is equipped with 77 mirror facets with 15 cm diameter, and its $3.87^\circ\times3.87^\circ$ field of view is instrumented with a 256-pixel camera yielding a $0.24^\circ$ angular resolution. The camera signals are digitized with a 100 MS/s, and 12-bit resolution switched capacitor array readout. We discuss the Demonstrator's design, the telescope's deployment on Frisco Peak, and its commissioning.

POLARIS: A Sparse Radial Neutrino Telescope Design for the Pacific Ocean
POLARIS is a radial sparse Cherenkov detector that targets the natural horizontal geometry of ultra-high-energy neutrino-induced muons to reach PeV sensitivities with only 1100 modules.
