Detector depth dependence of the high energy atmospheric neutrino flux

  • 1. Physics Department, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana 46556 (United States)

Description

We note that detector depth can influence the decay path length available for the primary and secondary particles that are the source of atmospheric neutrinos. As a consequence there is a location dependent modulation to the neutrino flux
