Antenna models
The following antenna models are available in NuRadioReco. The headings are the unique identifiers of the antenna model that need to specified as antenna_type in the detector description.
All antenna models are stored on a central data server and are downloaded automatically on-demand whenever the user requests the antenna model for the first time.
For developers: If you add new an antenna model please add it to this list and send me (Christian) the antenna model so that I can put it on our central server.

Best fit model of NEC2+XFDTD simulation and measurement of the ARA quad-slot antenna (Hpol). The antenna was put down a hole in a cube of ice of 6 m length. "Sensors" were put near the edge of the cube, but not too close, and the emitted electric field at that location was obtained and then the realized gain was calculated at n=1.78.
