Atmospheric Neutrino
• Cosmic rays interact with air nuclei in the atmosphere and produce hadrons.
• Hadrons subsequently decay producing neutrinos.
⇒ Atmospheric neutrino
• Atmospheric neutrinos are the background to astrophysical neutrinos.

Conventional Neutrino Flux
IceCube 1311.7048
• Neutrino flux from pion and kaon decay is called the conventional flux.
• Κ, π – long-lived particles
– interact before the decay
⇒ suppress the neutrino production at high E

Prompt Neutrino Flux
IceCube 1311.7048
• Neutrino flux from the decay of the charmed hadrons is called the prompt flux.
e.g.) D-mesons
• The charmed hadrons are short-lived particles.
• The resulting neutrino flux less depends on energy.

• The essential input to the neutrino flux evaluation is the charm production cross section.
• The charm production cross section can be calculated
1) in the perturbative QCD,
2) in the dipole model,
3) with non-perturbative “intrinsic charm” production.

Gluon distribution at small x
The gluon distribution increases rapidly as x becomes small. At the high density region, gluons can be overlapped and recombined. → Saturation effect

Prompt Flux in Dipole Model
New dipole cross section from the recent F2 parameterization – increases the flux by ~15%.
The effect of CR spectrum – above 1 PeV, reduction in flux is by a factor of 3-4.

Prompt Flux – Intrinsic charm
![Page 20: Prompt Neutrino Fluxes from Charm Production in the Atmospherehome.kias.re.kr/MKG/upload/Joint workshop/Yu_Seon_Jeong.pdf · Prompt Neutrino Fluxes from Charm Production in the Atmosphere](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081517/5edea6e9ad6a402d6669fb65/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Conclusion
• The prompt flux with more realistic cosmic ray nucleon spectrum is reduced relative to the prompt spectrum using the broken power law. At 1 PeV, the reduction in flux is about a factor of 3.
• The dipole cross section from the F2 parameterization by Block et al increase the flux about 15%.
• Intrinsic charm contribution based on the Hobbs et al MBM results may be important. – work in progress
• More update
– with separate lepton flavors
– with bottom quark contribution
– with other models for intrinsic charm
