Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment

Proposed Neutrino observatory under the Pacific Ocean From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment, or P-ONE, is a proposed neutrino observatory using an area of the north-eastern Pacific Ocean off the coast of British Columbia, Canada, to entrap neutrinos for study and experimentation.[1][2][3][4] The proposal involves building a multi-cubic-kilometer neutrino telescope at Ocean Networks Canada's Cascadia Basin site in the North East Pacific Time-series Underwater Networked Experiment (NEPTUNE) coastal network.[3] Although a considerable number of neutrinos are produced in the universe, they are emitted at a considerably low flux, and therefore require a large detection array for their capture.[2][3] The spokesperson of the P-ONE collaboration is Elisa Resconi from the Technical University of Munich.[5]
