	Layne Christensen Company - Directional Drilling Services
		The purpose of this project was to drill a shaft, starting on shore, toward the ocean passing beneath the shoreline and then curving upward to penetrate the seafloor at an offshore depth where the cables would be free from the destruction of storm-driven waves and currents.
		Because this project was impacting Class AA offshore waters, conventional drilling fluids or seaward discharge of cuttings were not allowed.
		Directional drilling with the Accu-Dril® Motor greatly reduced the impact to the sensitive coral reef as opposed to conventional blasting and trenching techniques which are devastating to the pristine marine environment.

	REU Research Project Examples
		Current projects include room acoustics studies using modern "minimally intrusive" techniques, physics of consonance/dissonance (including a project using real-time MIDI control to achieve context-dependent tuning), experiments on absolute pitch perception, and measurement and evaluation of pipe organ sound, with emphasis on the role of physical imperfections necessary to achieve the perception of perfection.
		Projects for Summer 2000 may involve joining graduate students studying mixtures of Helium 3 and Helium 4 below 1K adsorbed on graphite, hydrogen or deuterium molecules above 4K adsorbed on graphite or carbon nanotubes, nitrogen and/or methane adsorption on carbon nanotubes, hydrogen adsorption on gold, or Ar adsorption in silica particles.

	Science Fair Projects - Neutrino
		The exact time delay is unknown, but for a Type II supernova, astronomers expect the neutrino flood to be released seconds after the stellar core collapse, while the first electromagnetic signal may be hours or days later.
		The SNEWS project uses a network of neutrino detectors to monitor the sky for candidate supernova events; it is hoped that the neutrino signal will provide a useful advance warning of an exploding star.
		Tracking calorimeters such as the MINOS detectors - see the NuMI-MINOS project page - use alternating planes of a passive absorber material to provide detector mass and active detector planes to detect the charged particles produced by a neutrino interaction.

	physics - Project DUMAND
		Project DUMAND (Deep Underwater Muon And Neutrino Detector) was a proposed underwater neutrino telescope to be built in the Pacific Ocean, off the shore of Hawaii, a kilometer beneath the surface.
		Because of the nature of the interaction between the neutrino and the proton, Project DUMAND would have been most sensitive to ultra-high energy neutrinos, and completely insensitive to solar neutrinos.
		Although it was never completed, Project Dumand was in a sense a precursor of Antarctic Muon And Neutrino Detector Array, or AMANDA.

	Between neutrinos and the deep blue sea - CERN Courier
		This almost 40-year-old idea has led to projects to construct cosmic neutrino observatories under the sea.
		One of these - the ANTARES project, a deep-sea neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea - is expected to play a pioneering role in this new area of astronomy.
		The DUMAND project to mount a major detector in the Pacific near Hawaii, long a feature of physics conferences, was unfortunately abandoned.

		In addition to AST/RO, a project called COBRA (Cosmic Background Radiation Anisotropy) uses a giant horn antenna to study the cosmic background radiation, the relic of the early years of the expanding universe.
		The first project should eventually yield valuable information about conditions at the edges of clouds of gas and dust in interstellar space, where stars are believed to form.
		A sister project, DUMAND (Deep Underwater Muon and Neutrino Detector), aims to use a few cubic miles of the Pacific Ocean off Hawaii for a similar detector.

	Cable Experience
		This is an ambitious R&D project which addresses the loop formation problem in its entirety from the cable manufacture to placement of the cable on the seabed, and attempts to develop a practical methodology by which loops can be avoided.
		This project demonstrated that the use of the ICS to control the cable bottom tension and cable shape during cable retrieval operations could minimize (by a factor of 4 to 5) the length of cable that would be dragged on the ocean bottom.
		For this project, Makai made several modifications to the original Integrated Control System (ICS) to lay cables with zero bottom tension, with bodies (repeaters, transponders, hydrophones, etc.) attached to the cable, and a high degree of control on the cable slack at the touchdown point.

		In the second half of 1995 three complete strings will be subjected to a 50-hour ship suspended in-situ test each, at a depth of 4800 meters.
		During these tests the strings will be operated under the same conditions as later on, after reinstallation and connection to the junction box at the DUMAND site, to certify their immaculate operational capabilities.
		On their suggestion a study group for the design of a 1 km^3 neutrino telescope had been formed in 1994 that includes delegates from the now four large neutrino detector projects, DUMAND, AMANDA, Baikal and Nestor.

		To protect the values of KEO: global project, equality with a non-profit motive, independent from all political, denominational and commercial influence.
		KEO, with its aura of reverie and humanistic values has been able to assemble a large number of people who, being totally mesmerized by the concept of the project, wish to be associated with KEO by offering their personal time and their professional expertise and competencies.
		Today, this powerful and reliable global network does not cease from expanding, thus allowing KEO to be equipped to face all the different challenges that lie in store for it.

		Such neutrinos might be detected by an apparatus being considered in Project DUMAND (Deep Underwater Muon and Neutrino Detection).
		This is equivalent to a cubic volume of 100 kilometers on a side, already not too different from the scale of detectors being proposed for Project DUMAND.
		Some investigation of neutrino communication has been underway for sending a neutrino signal through the earth to nuclear submarines on the other side of the earth, but this will require the reduction of the detection apparatus from a cube 100 kilometers on a side to the size of a submarine.

	Neutrino Astronomy
		The lead project, called DUMAND was canceled in 1995 on account of slow progress and budget difficulties, but managed to make great headway in pioneering techniques, studying backgrounds, exploring detector designs, and perhaps most importantly stimulating the community to consider neutrinos in astrophysics.
		The Baikal project has reached a level of producing some modest physics results, including atmospheric neutrino detections, but is still a few years from significant neutrino astronomy since the present area amounts to only a few hundred square meters.
		Two projects similar to DUMAND are underway in the Mediterranean, the more developed NESTOR Project located off Pylos in the Southwest of Greece, and the new ANTARES Project located offshore from Marseilles, France.
