    The KM3NeT/ARCA (KM3 Neutrino Telescope / Astroparticle Research with Cosmics in the Abyss) detector, currently under construction in the Mediterranean Sea, employs a large-scale Acoustic Positioning System (APS) to continuously monitor the positions of the detection elements with high accuracy. The APS is a distributed phased-array system composed of a large number of digital acoustic sensors...

    The acoustic detection of Ultra-High-Energy (UHE) neutrinos has emerged as a promising technique for probing the highest-energy regime of neutrino astrophysics. The recent observation of a UHE event by the KM3NeT detector has further strengthened interest in complementary detection methods beyond the standard Cherenkov approach. At the KM3NeT/ARCA site, deployed at a depth of 3500 m and...

    The subsea cabled infrastructure of LNS-INFN continuously expands both in number of observing systems, and in capacity to host new assets.
    Since 2024, the historical Test Site offshore the port of Catania, at 2100 m water depth, has been upgraded with the installation of a short-baseline, large bandwidth tetrahedral antenna, deployed in the framework of the IPANEMA project.
    In 2025, a...

    Emerging optoacoustic sensing technologies offer a promising pathway for advancing the acoustic detection of ultra–high energy (UHE) neutrinos in the deep sea. Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS), and in particular Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS), enables the transformation of standard submarine telecommunication fibers into dense arrays of virtual hydrophones, with measurement points...
