The role of charm and unflavored mesons in prompt atmospheric lepton fluxes
Laksha Pradip Das, Diksha Garg, Maria Vittoria Garzelli +2
The all-sky very-high-energy ( GeV) atmospheric muon flux measured by IceCube shows a spectral hardening at the highest energies, indicating the presence of a prompt com…

Road map for the tuning of hadronic interaction models with accelerator-based and astroparticle data
Johannes Albrecht, Julia Becker Tjus, Noah Behling +52
In high-energy and astroparticle physics, event generators play an essential role, even in the simplest data analyses. As analysis techniques become more sophisticated, e.g. based…

Charmed hadron production in the QGSJET-III model: relevance to calculations of the prompt atmospheric neutrino background
Sergey Ostapchenko, Günter Sigl
The treatment of charmed hadron production in the framework of the QGSJET-III Monte Carlo generator is developed, including both perturbative and nonperturbative contributions. For…
