97. Measurement of the cosmic ray energy spectrum and composition with IceCube

Timo Karg (DESY)

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the geographic South Pole includes the cubic-kilometer deep-ice detector as well as a square-kilometer particle detector at the surface, IceTop. This unique combination allows measuring multiple components of cosmic-ray induced air showers in the PeV to EeV energy range: IceTop samples the electromagnetic component at the ground level and allows studying GeV...

100. Neutrino propagation in the galactic dark matter halo

The observation of PeV neutrinos has opened a window to study astrophysics and New Physics processes. Among PeV neutrino observables, the neutrino flavor composition become very interesting because it can reveal underlying interactions during the neutrino propagation. We consider the effect of galactic dark matter interactions on the neutrino oscillations. We estimate the effective interaction...

261. New results on the indirect search for dark matter using the ANTARES neutrino telescope

Dr Christoph TONNIS

5/14/09, 3:45 PM

Neutrino telescopes have a wide scientific scope. One of their main goals is the detection of dark matter, for which they have specific advantages. The understanding of the nature of dark matter requires a multi-front approach since we still do not know many of their properties. Neutrino telescopes offer the possibility of look at several kinds of sources, not all of them available to other...

102. Searches for diffuse fluxes of astrophysical neutrinos with the ANTARES telescope

Luigi Antonio Fusco (BO)

The ANTARES detector is the largest and longest operated neutrino telescope in the Northern Hemisphere. A highly-significant cosmic neutrino signal has been observed by the Antarctic IceCube detector and can be studied in details with ANTARES, exploiting the complementarity of its fields of view. All-flavour neutrino interactions can be observed and reconstructed by the experiment. Its good...
