Determination of the atmospheric neutrino fluxes from experimental data

چکیده
The precise knowledge of the atmospheric neutrino fluxes is a key ingredient in the interpretation of the results from any atmospheric neutrino experiment. In the standard atmospheric neutrino data analysis, these fluxes are theoretical inputs obtained from sophisticated numerical calculations. In this work we present an alternative approach to the determination of the atmospheric neutrino fluxes based on the direct extraction from the experimental data on neutrino event rates.

Determination of the Atmospheric Neutrino Fluxes from Atmospheric Neutrino Data
The precise knowledge of the atmospheric neutrino fluxes is a key ingredient in the interpretation of the results from any atmospheric neutrino experiment. In the standard data analysis, these fluxes are theoretical inputs obtained from sophisticated numerical calculations based on the convolution of the primary cosmic ray spectrum with the expected yield of neutrinos per incident cosmic ray. I...

متن کاملOscillations of solar and atmospheric neutrinos †
Motivated by recent results from SuperKamiokande, we study both solar and atmospheric neutrino fluxes in the context of oscillations of the three known neutrinos. We aim at a global view which identifies the various possibilities, rather than attempting the most accurate determination of the parameters of each scenario. For solar neu-trinos we emphasise the importance of performing a general an...
متن کاملProgresses in the validation of the FLUKA atmospheric ν flux calculation
The FLUKA calculation of the atmospheric neutrino fluxes have been cross–checked by comparing predictions on lepton fluxes in atmosphere to experimental data. The dependence of predicted neutrino fluxes on the shape and normalization of primary spectrum is also investigated.
متن کاملCalculation of fluxes of charged particles and neutrinos from atmospheric showers
The results on the fluxes of charged particles and neutrinos from a 3-dimensional (3D) simulation of atmospheric showers are presented. An agreement of calculated fluxes with data on charged particles from the AMS and CAPRICE detectors is demonstrated. Predictions on neutrino fluxes at different experimental sites are compared with results from other calculations.
