KM3NeT: Simulations for an Undersea Kilometer-Scale Neutrino Telescope — •Rezo Shanidze, Gisela Anton, Alexander Kappes, Uli Katz, and Sebatsian Kuch — Physikalisches Institut, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Erwin-Rommel-Str. 1, 91058 Erlangen

Monte Carlo simulations are presented for the proposed cubic kilometer-scale deep underwater neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean sea, the KM3NeT project. The current experimental and theoretical research indicates that a telescope of this scale is necessary to detect a variety of sources of high-energy neutrinos: the generic point sources, diffuse source and the sources associated with particular types of dark matter.
