Detector Depth Dependence of the High Energy Neutrino Flux

  • 1. Physics Department, University of Notre Dame du Lac, Notre Dame, IN 46556 (United States)

Description

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, which could be as large as 5-10% in some directions
