Abstract
During its flight ANITA-2 recorded \({\sim }21.4\) million RF triggered events. Simulations of ANITA-2 inform us that the experiment was likely to see very few neutrino-induced signals, with typical estimates in the range \(O\)(0.01–1) events, depending on the neutrino flux model used. Meanwhile, the number of cosmic-rays that triggered ANITA-2 is expected to be lower than the 16 observed by ANITA-1 due to modifications in the trigger scheme used.

Notes
- 1.
RF triggered events that display no L3 trigger were, in fact, L3 triggered events, but a rare condition in the FPGA trigger latching resulted in the L3 trigger information being recorded as negative in all \(\phi \)-sectors.
