Forward charm-production models and prompt neutrinos at IceCube
arXiv:1808.00293 · doi:10.1007/JHEP11(2018)150
Abstract
We investigate the prompt neutrino background at IceCube, as determined from forward charm. We consider the role of intrinsic charm and of a recombination model and show that the contribution of these mechanisms is at most a factor two.
