Neutrino astronomy and the atmospheric background

Description

Some aspects of neutrino astronomy are illustrated by calculating the neutrino-induced muon flux from Cygnus X-3 binary X-ray source. The signal depends primarily on the power in cosmic rays at the source and on the distance to the source, and only relatively little on details of the matter distribution in the neighborhood of the source
