AbstraktAbstract

The KM3NeT project, a leading neutrino telescope (NT), offers groundbreaking opportunities in diverse physics areas, including ultra-high-energy cosmic ray (UHECR) detection, neutrino oscillation studies, dark matter searches, supernova detection, and more. IEAP CTU, a full member of KM3NeT since 2022, collaborates with NIKHEF-CPPM-LSM to explore astrophysical neutrinos through experimental and theoretical studies. Our scientific team of 7 members (4 experts and 3 PhD students) has a broad experience in this (10+ years of work in Baikal-GVD NT) and related areas of neutrino physics. Our research focuses on UHEC-neutrino studies and their sources. Additionally, we aim to refine digital optical module (DOM) characterization and calibration, enhancing NT performance. We will also provide theoretical estimates of KM3NeT NT's sensitivity to neutrino selfinteractions.
