Very High Energy Neutrinos Originating from Kaons in Gamma-Ray Bursts

Abstract

We simulate neutrino production in a gamma-ray burst (GRB) with the most detailed method to date. We show that the highest energy neutrinos from GRBs mainly come from kaons. Although there is little chance to detect such neutrinos, attempts of detection are very important to prove physical conditions in GRBs.
