New trigger: novel techniques for pure, efficient and scalable autonomous radio detection of high energy neutrinos and cosmic rays – NUTRIG
The origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays - the most energetic particles in the Universe, sometimes exceeding energies of 10^20 eV - is still a mystery, after more than a century of theoretical and experimental research. Detection of cosmic neutrinos beyond energies of 10^17 eV may allow to identi
