Detector optimisation studies for the KM3NeT conceptual design report — •Rezo Shanidze for the ANTARES- und KM3NeT-Erlangen collaboration — Erlangen Centre for Astroparticle Physics (ECAP), Erlangen University, Erwin-Rommel-Str.1, 91058 Erlangen

The KM3NeT Design Study is an EU-funded project for an European deep-sea research infrastructure, which will host a high energy neutrino telescope with a volume of at least one cubic kilometre in the Mediterranean Sea. Recently, the KM3NeT consortium prepared the Conceptual Design Report (CDR), in which the possible options for the KM3NeT detector are described. The detector optimisation studies, performed in Erlangen using MC simulations, will be presented in the talk.
