Parametrization of atmospheric muon angular flux underwater

“…(6) with varying spectral index γ. Open circles correspond to numerical computations using VZK sea level spectrum (Volkova et al, 1979), closed circles -Gaisser's sea level spectrum (Gaisser, 1990)…”

“…Thin solid curves -sea level spectrum defined by Eq. (6), dashed -VZK sea level spectrum (Volkova et al, 1979), dash-dotted -Gaisser's sea level spectrum (Gaisser, 1990), dotted -LVD (Aglietta et al, 1999) sea level spectrum.…”

Individual GRB sensitivity of a cubic-kilometre deep-sea neutrino telescope KM3NeT

“…Figures 1 and 2 present respectively the prompt photon spectrum and the predicted neutrino spectrum for GRB071227 (z = 0.383, F γ = 2.2 10 -7 erg/cm², duration = 1.8s). The background spectrum (mainly from atmospheric neutrinos) is computed using the Volkova parameterisation [11] and a search window of 1.5°. Due to the large parameter error, the predicted spectrum has around one order of magnitude error.…”

“…The shaded region shows the incertitude. The descending dashed curve corresponds to the neutrino background flux assuming a search window of 1.5° (Volkova[11]).…”

Neutrino masses

“…Several theoretical computations of the resulting ν fluxes have been performed, both for the low energy neutrinos that lead to contained events (Barr, Gaisser and Stanev 1989, Lee and Koh 1990, Honda et al 1990, Kawasaki and Mizuta 1991, Bugaev and Naumov 1989 and for those of higher energies that produce throughgoing muons (Volkova 1980, Mitsui, Minorikawa and Komori 1986, Butkevich, Dedenko and Zheleznykh 1989. The different computations typically agree on the absolute values of the ν e +ν e and ν µ +ν µ fluxes only within 20-30%.…”
