Simulations of radio-based Ultra-High Energy (UHE) in-ice neutrino experiments.

ORAL

Abstract

Computer simulations of UHE neutrinos interacting in ice and their subsequent detection through the radio-technique are important, as they help us to improve the design of experiments and to better understand our results. Because of this crucial role of the simulations, the InIceMC simulation group, a team composed mainly by members of the ARA and ARIANNA collaborations, has been born, having as a main goal the improvement of the computing tools we use to model the physics behind the detection of UHE neutrinos. This talk will highlight the achieved development, the work in progress, and the overall goals of the InIceMC simulation working team.
