Ultra high energy neutrino-nucleon cross section from cosmic ray experiments and neutrino telescopes
We deduce the cosmogenic neutrino flux by jointly analysing ultra high energy cosmic ray data from HiRes-I and II, AGASA and the Pierre Auger Observatory. We make two determinations of the neutrino flux by using a model-dependent method and a model-independent method. The former is well-known, and involves the use of a power-law injection spectrum. The latter is a regularized unfolding procedur...
متن کاملInferring Neutrino Cross Sections Above 10 eV
Extremely high energy neutrinos propagating in the atmosphere or in the Earth can originate horizontal or upgoing air-showers, respectively. We calculate the acceptances (event rate/flux) for detecting both types of events by fluorescence detectors, both spacebased as with the EUSO and OWL proposals, and ground-based, as with Auger, HiRes and Telescope Array. We depict them as a function of the...
متن کاملBrane-Production and the Neutrino-Nucleon cross section at Ultra High Energies in Low Scale Gravity Models
The origin of the ultra high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) showers has remained as a mystery among particle physicists and astrophysicists. In low scale gravity models, where the neutrino-nucleon cross section rises to typical hadronic values at energies above 10 eV, the neutrino becomes a candidate for the primary that initiates these showers. We calculate the neutrino-nucleon cross section at ult...

The first optical modules of the Baikal high energy neutrino telescope have recently been deployed. Commissioning of the AMANDA, DUMAND and NESTOR detectors will follow soon. Before discussing the detectors we review the arguments that pinpoint 0.1 km as the natural scale of a neutrino telescope. Though present detectors do not quite reach this goal, their techniques, if successful, can be expl...
متن کاملTeV String State Excitation via High Energy Cosmic Neutrinos
We construct the open-string scattering amplitudes for neutrino-gluon collisions and evaluate the high energy neutrino-nucleon scattering cross section via string state excitations in the TeV string-scale scenario. We find that the neutrino-gluon scattering is the dominant contribution, 5 − 10 times larger than neutrino-quark processes, though black hole production may be larger than the string...
