Images of designs and prototypes of deployment methods
Shown ar designs and prototypes for deployment methods for detection units resulting from the KM3NeT Design Study. You are free to use these images, provided you mention the source of them as follows: "Propriety KM3NeT Consortium".- Deployment methods Compact deployment followed by unfurling of the KM3NeT detection unit has been worked out. During the Preparatory Phase two implementations of this concept will be extensively tested.
