| ARA -- the Askar'yan Radio Array
This next phase begins in 2010. Go to

NARC is placing sensor modules in the ice to detect radio
signals (Askar'yan pulses) derived from the rare interactions
between a high-energy neutrino and the ice. The module is
known as a DRM, a "Digital Radio Module" which is typically mounted
on an IceCube string.
The DRM has 4 receiver antennas and a transmitter antenna.
The overall DRM design plan can be
viewed through a series of block diagramsMany of the DRM
components were designed and/or fabricated in the IDL.
