This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award for $101,576, effective September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2025, supports the expansion and operations of the Radio Neutrino Observatory in Greenland (RNO-G) to enable observations of ultra-high-energy neutrinos. The project, funded under NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program, will improve drill reliability and efficiency to install additional stations in the Greenland ice, construct and commission new instrumentation, study radio wave propagation in ice, and operate the RNO-G array to collect science data. By expanding the observatory, the project aims to advance multi-messenger astrophysics research on the most powerful cosmic ray accelerators and explosive events in the universe, leveraging the unique properties of ultra-high-energy neutrinos to probe extreme conditions. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
