MARC recordThe AMANDA project: drilling precise, large-diameter holes using hot water / Bruce Koci.
| Title: | The AMANDA project: drilling precise, large-diameter holes using hot water / Bruce Koci. |
| Author(s): | Koci, Bruce. |
| Date: | 1994. |
| In: | National Institute of Polar Research. Memoirs. Special Issue. (1994.), Vol. 49 (1994) |
| Abstract: | Antarctic muon and neutrino detector array (AMANDA) requires drilling of multiple hot-water holes 50 cm in diameter to depths exceeding 1 km. Strings of photo multiplier tubes 200 m long are then lowered into holes and allowed to freeze in. Holes must be vertical and parallel; drilling techniques and instrumentation to provide these conditions are described. |
| Notes: | National Institute of Polar Research. Memoirs. Special Issue. Vol. 49 :203-211 (1994). |
