AbstractThe two-detector design of the NOvA neutrino oscillation experiment, in which two functionally identical detectors are exposed to an intense neutrino beam, aids in canceling leading order effects of cross-section uncertainties. However, limited knowledge of neutrino interaction cross sections still gives rise to some of the largest systematic uncertainties in current oscillation measurements. We show contemporary models of neutrino interactions to be discrepant with data from NOvA, consistent with discrepancies seen in other experiments. Adjustments to neutrino interaction models in GENIE are presented, creating an effective model that improves agreement with our data. We also describe systematic uncertainties on these models, including uncertainties on multi-nucleon interactions from a newly developed procedure using NOvA near detector data.

Origin Of The Universe

Ultrahigh energy neutrinos can provide important information about the distant astronomical objects and the origin of the Universe. Precise knowledge about neutrino interactions and production rates is essential for estimating background, expected fluxes and detection probabilities. In this paper we review the applications of the high energy QCD to the calculations of the interaction cross-sections of the neutrinos. We also study the production of the ultrahigh energy neutrinos in the atmosphere due to the charm and beauty decays.

The fluxes of neutrino induced muons at different zenith angles have been calculated using the high energy diffused neutrino spectra emitted from blazars. We have used the standard formulation developed by Gaisser based on charge-current interactions in rock and the QED-based energy loss formulation to estimate the spectra of neutrino induced muons. The energy spectra of neutrino flux generated from blazars has been taken from the model calculations of Protheroe. The latest charge-current and total interaction cross-sections at ultrahigh energies from Kwiecinski et al. have been used to find the probability of muon generation from neutrinos and the loss of neutrinos during propagation through the Earth. We find that our derived horizontal neutrino induced muon energy spectra expected from blazar model of Protheroe is comparable with the upper limits as predicted by SOUDAN 2 experiment.
