 | Gondolo, Paolo | Measuring the prompt atmospheric neutrino flux with down-going muons in neutrino telescopes | In the TeV energy region and above, the uncertainty in the level of prompt atmospheric neutrinos would limit the search for diffuse astrophysical neutrinos. We suggest that neutrino telescopes may provide an empirical determination of the flux of prompt atmospheric electron and muon neutrinos by mea... | Neutrino telescopes; Prompt flux | 2003-01 |

 | Gondolo, Paolo | Prompt atmospheric neutrinos and muons: dependence on the gluon distribution function | We compute the next-to-leading order QCD predictions for the vertical flux of atmospheric muons and neutrinos from decays of charmed particles, for different PDF's (MRS-R1, MRS-R2, CTEQ-4M and MRST) and different extrapolations of these at a small partonic momentum fraction x. We find that the predi... | Neutrino telescopes; Charm; Atmospheric flux; Prompt flux | 2000-02 |

 | Gondolo, Paolo | Prompt atmospheric neutrinos and muons: NLO vs LO QCD predictions | We compare the leading and next-to-leading order QCD predictions for the flux of atmospheric muons and neutrinos from decays of charmed particles. We find that the full NLO lepton fluxes can be approximated to within ~10% by the Born-level fluxes multiplied by an overall factor of 2.2-2.4, which d... | Atmospheric flux; Prompt flux; Charm | 2000-01 |
