  • Abstract
    A charged particle which travels a dielectric medium with a velocity greater than the light one will generate Cherenkov radiation in a wide range of frequencies. In this paper we presented a model and a possible implementation of a cosmic radiation detector that can detect particles, like neutrinos. The model is evaluated in salt mines, because this type of environment is the most robust one to electromagnetic noise.
