A Challenges
Low interaction cross section Need huge detection volumes Actual neutrino flux depends on target
thickness Predictions 25 years ago have been up to two
orders of magnitude higher than today 1990s: recognize need of cubic kilometer
detectors Now: cubic kilometer detectors will possibly
just scratch the interesting range
Martin Harwitt: „Would one have believed the tim
id
predictions of theoreticians, X-ray astronomy would
likely have started only a decade later.“
