TAMBO: Searching for Tau Neutrinos in the Peruvian Andes
William G. Thompson
The detection of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos by IceCube has opened a new window on our Universe. While IceCube has measured the flux of these neutrinos at energies up to se…
Search for High-energy Neutrinos from Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817 with ANTARES, IceCube, and the Pierre Auger Observatory
A. Albert, M. Andre, M. Anghinolfi +1931
The Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observatories recently discovered gravitational waves from a binary neutron star inspiral. A short gamma-ray burst (GRB) that followed the merg…
The MIDAS telescope for microwave detection of ultra-high energy cosmic rays
J. Alvarez-Muñiz, E. Amaral Soares, A. Berlin +19
We present the design, implementation and data taking performance of the MIcrowave Detection of Air Showers (MIDAS) experiment, a large field of view imaging telescope designed to…
Search for microwave emission from ultrahigh energy cosmic rays
J. Alvarez-Muñiz, A. Berlin, M. Bogdan +17
We present a search for microwave emission from air showers induced by ultrahigh energy cosmic rays with the microwave detection of air showers experiment. No events were found, ru…
The MIDAS experiment: A prototype for the microwave emission of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays
M. Monasor, I. Alekotte, J. Alvarez-Muniz +17
Recent measurements suggest that extensive air showers initiated by ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) emit signals in the microwave band of the electromagnetic spectrum caused…
Status Report and Future Prospects on LUNASKA Lunar Observations with ATCA
C. W. James, R. D. Ekers, J. Alvarez-Muniz +4
LUNASKA (Lunar UHE Neutrino Astrophysics with the Square Kilometre Array) is a theoretical and experimental project developing the lunar Cherenkov technique for the next generation…
High energy neutrinos from radio-quiet AGNs
Jaime Alvarez-Muñiz, Peter Meszaros
Most active galactic nuclei (AGN) lack prominent jets, and show modest radio emission and significant X-ray emission which arises mainly from the galactic core, very near from the…
GRB941017: A Case Study of Neutrino Production in Gamma Ray Bursts
Jaime Alvarez-Muñiz, Francis Halzen, Dan Hooper
GRB941017, a gamma-ray burst of exceptional fluence, has recently been shown to have a high-energy component which is not consistent with the standard fireball phenomenology. If th…
Neutrinos From Individual Gamma-Ray Bursts in the BATSE Catalog
D. Guetta, D. Hooper, J. Alvarez-Muniz +2
We calculate the neutrino emission from individual gamma-ray bursts observed by the BATSE detector on the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory. Neutrinos are produced by photoproduction o…
Possible High-energy neutrinos from the cosmic accelerator RXJ1713.7-3946
Jaime Alvarez-Muñiz, Francis Halzen
The observation of TeV-gamma rays of neutral pion origin from the supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 might have revealed the first specific site where protons are accelerated to ene…
Detecting Microscopic Black Holes with Neutrino Telescopes
Jaime Alvarez-Muniz, Jonathan L. Feng, Francis Halzen +2
If spacetime has more than four dimensions, ultra-high energy cosmic rays may create microscopic black holes. Black holes created by cosmic neutrinos in the Earth will evaporate, a…
Phenomenology of High Energy Neutrinos in Low-Scale Quantum Gravity Models
J. Alvarez-Muniz, F. Halzen, T. Han +1
We show that neutrino telescopes, optimized for detecting neutrinos of TeV to PeV energy, can reveal threshold effects associated with TeV-scale gravity. The signature is an increa…
Prospects for radio detection of extremely high energy cosmic rays and neutrinos in the Moon
J. Alvarez-Muñiz, E. Zas
We explore the feasibility of using the Moon as a detector of extremely high energy (>10^19 eV) cosmic rays and neutrinos. The idea is to use the existing radiotelescopes on Earth…
10^20 eV Cosmic Ray and Particle Physics with IceCube
J. Alvarez-Muniz, F. Halzen
We show that a kilometer-scale neutrino observatory, though optimized for detecting neutrinos of TeV to PeV energy, can reveal the science associated with the enigmatic super-EeV r…
10^20 eV Cosmic-Ray and Particle Physics with Kilometer-Scale Neutrino Telelscopes
J. Alvarez-Muniz, F. Halzen
We show that a kilometer-scale neutrino observatory, though optimized for TeV to PeV energy, is sensitive to the neutrinos associated with super-EeV sources. These include super-he…
High Energy Neutrinos from Gamma Ray Bursts: Event Rates in Neutrino Telescopes
J. Alvarez-Muniz, F. Halzen, D. W. Hooper
Following Waxman and Bahcall we calculate the event rate, energy and zenith angle dependence of neutrinos produced in the fireball model of gamma ray bursts (GRB). We emphasize the…
Muon Detection of TeV Gamma Rays from Gamma Ray Bursts
J. Alvarez-Muniz, F. Halzen
Because of the limited size of the satellite-borne instruments, it has not been possible to observe the flux of gamma ray bursts (GRB) beyond GeV energy. We here show that it is po…
