NOY TAZA Neutrino Observatory Project in TAZA A. Hoummada University HASSAN II CASABLANCA On behalf of NOY collaboration D. Lebrun & F. Montanet LPSC - Grenoble
Outline - Cosmic Rays & Neutrino Astronomy - Neutrinos Oscillations Scheme- NOY : Detector & Site- Simulation results - Conclusion & Progress Scientific Objectives Of NOY - Neutrinos from galactic sources - Pulsars, Supernova Remnants - Microquasars – - Intense activity in Galactic centre reported by TeV -ray telescopes - Neutrinos from extragalactic sources - Active Galactic Nuclei - Gamma Ray Bursts - Dark Matter, supersymetric particles (neutralinos, …) - Possible new Physics Beyond TeV Scale & new Neutrinos Hygh Energy Physics
so we are here today

NOY : Detector and Site 100 m
NOY : Detector and Site RIF Mountain 750 m asl ATLAS Mountain 3000 m asl Valley 400 m asl Width from 6 to 15 km 2 Km from TAZA
Neutrino Sensitivity for different neutrino enrgies : from 100 MeV to 100 GeV
Conclusion • UHECR experiments will allow an exciting physics program complementary to UHE astronomy : - One can learn about high enregy process in QCD - One may be able to test new physics ideas in neutrino interactions - One may find dark matter - One may have indication on new Physics beyond the TeV scale - Outreach and Education Progress - September 2011 : Construction of the Cabane - February 2012 : Installation and Commissionning of the first prototype - Summer 2012 : Installation of the 5 stations and Data taking
