Calibrating the Radio Neutrino Observatory in Greenland
The Radio Neutrino Observatory in Greenland (RNO-G) targets the detection of ultra-high energy neutrinos by observing radio emissions from neutrino-induced particle showers in glacial ice. At completion, RNO-G will consist of 35 autonomous antenna stations distributed over $\mathcal{O}(50\mathrm{km}^2)$. The physics program of this unique instrument requires excellent understanding of the detector response, the geometry of the deployed antenna stations, and the electrical properties of the surrounding glacial ice. This document provides an overview of the calibration techniques developed to address these challenges and shows their application to the seven already-operational RNO-G stations.
