The KM3NeT Project and Neutrinos from LHC — •Rezo Shanidze, Gisela Anton, Ralf Auer, Felix Fehr, Bettina Hartmann, Juergen Hoessl, Alexander Kappes, Timo Karg, Uli Katz, Claudio Kopper, Wolfgang Kretschmer, Sebastian Kuch, Robert Lahmann, Horst Laschinsky, Holger Motz, Christopher Naumann, Melitta Naumann-Godo, and Christian Stegmann — Physikalisches Institut I, University of Erlangen, Erwin-Rommel-Strasse 1, 91058 Erlangen

KM3NeT is a project of next generation deep underwater neutrino telescope in the Mediterranean Sea with an instrumented volume of at least one cubic kilometer. KM3NeT will search for high energy neutrinos from distant astrophysical sources. The high sensitivity of KM3NeT also gives a possibility to detect the high energy neutrinos produced from proton beams of the Large Hadron Collider(LHC) at CERN. Preliminary study of neutrino fluxes from LHC and possible event rates in KM3NeT is presented in this talk.
