Scientific paper

The ANITA (ANtarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna) experiment is a balloon-borne, broadband antenna array flown over the Antarctic continent. It is designed to detect radio Cherenkov emission from UHE astrophysical neutrino (\unit[E>10^{12}]{MeV}) interactions in the ice below. ANITA 1 completed a 35 day flight during the Austral summer of 2006-2007. ANITA 2 was launched December 20, 2008 and flew for 30 days. ANITA 1 set an upper limit on the high energy neutrino flux that eliminates the highest cosmogenic neutrino models. Progress has been made on ANITA 2 data analysis, and preliminary results will be reported.
