Correlating prompt GRB photons with neutrinos
It is standard in theoretical neutrino astrophysics to use a broken power law approximation, based on the Band function, to describe the average photon flux of the prompt emission of Gamma-Ray Bursts. We will show that this approximation overestimates the contribution of high energy γ-rays (and underestimates low energy γ-rays). As a consequence models that rely on this approximation overestima...
متن کاملSignature Neutrinos from Ultrahigh-energy Photons
At high red shift, the temperature of cosmic microwave background is sufficiently high for the ultrahighenergy photons to pair-produce muons and pions through interactions with the background photons. At the same time, the radio background and magnetic fields are too weak to drain energy out of the electromagnetic cascade before the muons and pions are produced. Decays of the energetic muons an...
متن کاملTeV photons and Neutrinos from giant soft-gamma repeaters flares
During the last 35 years three giant flares were observed from so-called Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGR’s). They are assumed to be associated with star-quakes of pulsars accelerating electrons and, possibly, protons to high energy in the huge magnetic fields as inferred from the observations. Because of this and the observation of non-thermal emission it has been speculated that they may be cosmic r...
متن کاملTeV neutrinos and GeV photons from shock breakout in supernovae.
We show that as a Type II supernova shock breaks out of its progenitor star, it becomes collisionless and may accelerate protons to energies >10 TeV. Inelastic nuclear collisions of these protons produce an approximately 1 h long flash of TeV neutrinos and 10 GeV photons, about 10 h after the thermal (10 MeV) neutrino burst from the cooling neutron star. A Galactic supernova in a red supergiant...
متن کاملCompton-like interaction of massive neutrinos with virtual photons
The amplitude of a Compton-like process νiγ ∗ → νjγ∗ with virtual photons is calculated in the standard GWS theory with lepton mixing. The contribution of this process to the high energy neutrino scattering on the nucleus with single photon radiation νN → νNγ is discussed. The bremsspectrum and the total cross-section are estimated in the leading log approximation. Published: Physics Letters B ...
