利用電波技術量測超高能微中子及宇宙射線

Abstract

本論文探討應用電波技術在超高能文中子的量測。第一部分研究超高能粒子所產生出的切輪可夫輻射行為，並使用有限元素法研究之。第二部分介紹ANITA實驗所利用的偵測方法、儀器設計及物理結果。第三部份介紹ARA天壇陣列實驗的偵測方法、儀器設計及物理結果。最後探討一種分辨超高能微中子味道的方法。

In this thesis we study the Cherenkov radiation pulse from ultra-high energy particle shower by a numerical finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Expounding the work on ANITA experiment include detection method, instrument and operation method. The design concept of Askaryan Radio Array (ARA) experiment and the hardware, deploy and operation. We propose our strategy to identify the neutrino flavor in observing cosmogenic neutrinos by radio neutrino telescopes, such as ARA, ARIANNA.
