AMANDA 7-Year Multipole Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
The multipole analysis investigates the arrival directions of registered neutrino events in AMANDA-II by a spherical harmonics expansion. The expansion of the expected atmospheric neutrino distribution returns a characteristic set of expansion coefficients. This characteristic spectrum of expansion coefficients can be compared with the expansion coefficients of the experimental data. As atmospheric neutrinos are the dominant background of the search for extraterrestrial neutrinos, the agreement of experimental data and the atmospheric prediction can give evidence for physical neutrino sources or systematic uncertainties of the detector. Astrophysical neutrino signals were simulated and it was shown that they influence the expansion coefficients in a characteristic way. Those simulations are used to analyze deviations between experimental data and Monte Carlo simulations with regard to potential physical reasons. The analysis method was applied on the AMANDA-II neutrino sample measured between 2000 and 2006 and results are presented.

A New Guideline for the Allocation of Multipoles in the Multiple Multipole Method for Two Dimensional Scattering from Dielectrics
A new guideline for proper allocation of multipoles in the multiple multipole method (MMP) is proposed. In an ‘a posteriori’ approach, subspace fitting (SSF) is used to find the best location of multipole expansions for the two dimensional dielectric scattering problem. It is shown that the best location of multipole expansions (regarding their global approximating power) coincides with the med...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Multipole and Empirical Relations Methods for Effective Index and Dispersion Calculations of Silica-Based Photonic Crystal Fibers
In this paper, we present a solid-core Silica-based photonic crystal fiber (PCF) composed of hexagonal lattice of air-holes and calculate the effective index and chromatic dispersion of PCF for different physical parameters using the empirical relations method (ERM). These results are compared with the data obtained from the conventional multipole method (MPM). Our simulation results reveal tha...

We investigated theoretically the ground state electronic structure and the onset of molecular fragmentation of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene (FOX-7) using density functional theory. The molecular charge density was analyzed via two partition methods: the distributed multipole analysis (DMA) and the deformed atoms in molecules (DAM). In this framework, the push-pull effect, hydrogen intra-mol...

Comparative analysis of current and magnetic multipole graphical models
In recent year, a multipole graphical model, which is constructed by using individual MCG measurements based on the equivalent current dipole (ECD) or equivalent magnetic dipole (EMD) source model, has been developed with the aim of instead of the volume conductor model in the inverse solution of cardiac source estimation. In this paper, two graphical models known as the double magnetic dipole ...
