论文摘要
KM3NET是地中海下建设中的一项研究基础设施。它拥有两个大容量的中微子Cherenkov望远镜：ARCA的深度为3500 m，位于近海西西里岛，而Orca在海平面为2500 m，位于法国南部海岸的海平面下。这两个检测器共享相同的检测原理和技术以及相同的数据采集设计，唯一的区别是光传感器的几何布置。这允许跨越广泛的中微子能量并涵盖一个大型科学计划：中微子特性的研究，首先是中微子质量有序，高能量中微子天体物理学来源的鉴定和研究，间接的暗物质搜索以及核心崩溃的超新星检测。
KM3NeT is a research infrastructure in construction under the Mediterranean Sea. It hosts two large volume neutrino Cherenkov telescopes: ARCA at a depth of 3500 m, located offshore Sicily, and ORCA, 2500 m under the sea level, offshore the southern French coast. The two detectors share the same detection principle and technology and the same data acquisition design, the only difference being the geometrical arrangement of the optical sensors. This allows to span a wide range of neutrino energy and cover a large scientific program: the study of neutrino properties, first of all neutrino mass ordering, the identification and study of high energy neutrino astrophysical sources, indirect dark matter searches and core collapse supernovae detection.
