Analysis of first KM3NeT/ORCA data — •Johannes Schumann for the KM3NeT-ECAP collaboration — Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, ECAP

The KM3NeT neutrino detectors are currently being built in the deep Mediterranean Sea. KM3NeT/ORCA is the low energy branch of KM3NeT and the ORCA detector is designed for the investigation of oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos. The first detection elements have been deployed and the corresponding data has been analysed. Even with the first detection elements of the detector, the reconstruction of muon tracks is already possible.

In this talk, the analysis of the track reconstruction data and the identification of first neutrino candidates is presented.
