摘要
We review the phenomenology of UHE neutrino detection. The motivations for looking for such neutrinos, stemming from observational evidence and from the potential for new physics discoveries are enumerated, and their expected sources and fluxes are given. Cross-sections with nucleons at energies all the way up to 10(20) eV and the attenuation of fluxes in the Earth, both; of which are physics issues important to their detection, are discussed. Finally, sample event-rates for extant and planned Water/Ice Cerenkov detectors are provided.
