Detection of Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Rays and Neutrinos with Ultra-Long-Wavelength Radio Array

Key Points

• The aim is to detect ultra-high-energy cosmic rays and neutrinos impacting the lunar surface through new radio detection techniques.
• Utilization of the Askaryan effect for radio radiation generation on the lunar surface.
• Formation of an ultra-long-wavelength radio array using satellites in lunar orbit for observing cosmic rays.
• Implementation of both single antenna and interferometric observations to enhance signal detection.
• Measurement of three-dimensional polarization to confirm the nature of the detected signals.
• Successfully detected radio pulse signals generated by cosmic rays and neutrinos on the moon.
• Improved detection sensitivity through coherent measurements of signals from multiple antennas.
• Results provide a framework for future lunar experiments targeting ultra-high-energy particle detection.
