Unstable superheavy relic particles as a source of neutrinos responsible for the ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays
Graciela Gelmini, Alexander Kusenko
Decays of superheavy relic particles may produce extremely energetic neutrinos. Their annihilations on the relic neutrinos can be the origin of the cosmic rays with energies beyond…
Prompt atmospheric neutrinos and muons: dependence on the gluon distribution function
Graciela Gelmini, Paolo Gondolo, Gabriele Varieschi
We compute the next-to-leading order QCD predictions for the vertical flux of atmospheric muons and neutrinos from decays of charmed particles, for different PDF's (MRS-R1, MRS-R2,…
Prompt atmospheric neutrinos and muons: NLO vs LO QCD predictions
Graciela Gelmini, Paolo Gondolo, Gabriele Varieschi
We compare the leading and next-to-leading order QCD predictions for the flux of atmospheric muons and neutrinos from decays of charmed particles. We find that the full NLO lepton…
Neutrinos,Cosmology and Astrophysics
G. Gelmini
We review bounds on neutrino properties, in particular on their masses, coming mostly from cosmology, and also from astrophysics.
Highest-energy cosmic rays from Fermi-degenerate relic neutrinos consistent with Super-Kamiokande results
Graciela Gelmini, Alexander Kusenko
Relic neutrinos with mass 0.07 (+0.02/-0.04) eV, in the range consistent with Super-Kamiokande data, can explain the cosmic rays with energies in excess of the Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuz…
