Abstract
Although the field of neutrino astronomy has blossomed in the past decade, physicists have struggled to fully map the high-energy neutrino sky. The Tau Air-shower Mountain-Based Observatory (TAMBO), a mountain-based neutrino observatory, aims to solve that issue—and find clues of new physics along the way. TAMBO will measure supra-petaelectronvolt tau neutrinos from the Universe by looking for the characteristic air shower of particles that are produced by the decay of a tau lepton that has interacted with Earth’s crust.

期刊介绍:
Nature Astronomy, the oldest science, has played a significant role in the history of Nature. Throughout the years, pioneering discoveries such as the first quasar, exoplanet, and understanding of spiral nebulae have been reported in the journal. With the introduction of Nature Astronomy, the field now receives expanded coverage, welcoming research in astronomy, astrophysics, and planetary science. The primary objective is to encourage closer collaboration among researchers in these related areas.
Similar to other journals under the Nature brand, Nature Astronomy boasts a devoted team of professional editors, ensuring fairness and rigorous peer-review processes. The journal maintains high standards in copy-editing and production, ensuring timely publication and editorial independence.
In addition to original research, Nature Astronomy publishes a wide range of content, including Comments, Reviews, News and Views, Features, and Correspondence. This diverse collection covers various disciplines within astronomy and includes contributions from a diverse range of voices.
