An Upper Limit on the Electron‐Neutrino Flux from the HiRes Detector

Abstract: Air-fluorescence detectors such as the High Resolution Fly's Eye ( HiRes) detector are very sensitive to upwardgoing, Earth-skimming ultra-high-energy electron-neutrino-induced showers. This is due to the relatively large interaction cross sections of these high-energy neutrinos and to the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal (LPM) effect. The LPM effect causes a significant decrease in the cross sections for bremsstrahlung and pair production, allowing chargedcurrent electron-neutrino-induced showers occurring deep in t… Show more

“…The results depend on the behavior of structure functions at ultra-small x, down to x ∼ 10 −12 for the neutrino energies E ν ∼ 10 16 GeV that will potentially be accessible at cosmic ray neutrino detectors now operating (ICECUBE [33], Baikal [34], ANTARES [35], HiRes [36], AUGER [37]), or under development (ARA [38], ARIANNA [39]) or proposed (JEM-EUSO [40,41]). …”

“…This is the same energy range with the same constraints as used in the Block-Halzen fits based on analytic amplitudes with a ln 2 s high energy behavior [2,9]. However, we include the newer data at very high energies from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) [12][13][14][15][16] and the Auger [17] and HiRes [18] collaborations.…”
