Radiowave Method of High Energy Neutrino Detection: Calculation of Expected Event Rate

The sensitivity of an ice radiowave detector to the anticipated high energy neutrino fluxes is calculated on the basis of a detailed threshold analysis and computation of the shower production rate. We show that diffuse neutrinos from Active Galactic Nuclei could be detectable in a radio detector of...

Description
Summary:The sensitivity of an ice radiowave detector to the anticipated high energy neutrino fluxes is calculated on the basis of a detailed threshold analysis and computation of the shower production rate. We show that diffuse neutrinos from Active Galactic Nuclei could be detectable in a radio detector of 1 km 2 area established in Central Antarctica. 1
