Particle Physics - Neutrino Physics - ??N at EEacc. - NewPhysics beyond SM (strongly interacting ns) Cosmology - EHECn absorption on CnB - top-down models (TD, DM and WIMPs) UHE?s Production Electromagnetic radiation (?-rays) is absorbed Protons/nuclei are deflected and/or absorbed Weakly-interacting neutrinos retain directional information - a strong motivation for Neutrino Astronomy Cosmogenic neutrino flux Weak interaction at the same time a great opportunity for discoveries and a gigantic obstacle for detection the Challenge of Neutrino Detection Giulia De Bonis Neutrino Fluxes and Neutrino Detectors Optimal Sensitivity Energy Range for Underwater/Ice Cherenkov Telescopes 1TeV – 10 PeV
