It is well known that the correlation of atmospheric neutrinos and muons are simply correlated in the energy region of 1–10 GeV, and used for the test bench of the hadronic interaction model used for the calculation of the atmospheric neutrino flux. However, the correlation becomes unclear for neutrinos in the energy range below 1 GeV, which is important for the study of mass ordering of neutrino and CP phase of the neutrino mass. We extend the study of the correlation to the lower neutrino energies and find that the atmospheric muon flux observed at high altitude shows a good correlation to the atmospheric neutrino flux, and could be used to calibrate the hadronic interaction model.

We present in this paper the results of 3D-calculation of the atmospheric muon flux at different altitudes. We have used for this purpose the extensive air shower simulation package CORSIKA (v. 6.031) in combination with the hadronic interaction models VENUS (v. 4.12) at high energy (beyond 80 GeV) and GHEISHA (v. 2002) and UrQMD (v. 1.1) at lower energy. Our results are compared to data from different experiments (CAPRICE, BESS and HEAT). The correlation of the atmospheric muon flux to the primary zenith angle and primary energy is also investigated.
