通过Westerbork合成Radio Telescope的观测改进了能量大于10 $^{22}$ eV的中微子的通量极限
Improved flux limits for neutrinos with energies above 10$^{22}$ eV from observations with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope
摘要:
由月球风化层中的超高能(UHE)中微子引发的粒子级联将通过称为Askaryan效应的过程发出持续时间为纳秒量级的电磁脉冲。已经表明,在150兆赫左右的观测窗口中,用天文学中常用的射电望远镜探测这种辐射的机会最大。在50小时的观测时间与韦斯特博克综合射电望远镜阵列,我们已经设定了一个新的限制的中微子通量,总结了所有口味,与能量超过$4\times10^{22}$电子伏特。
英文摘要:
Particle cascades initiated by ultra-high energy (UHE) neutrinos in the lunar regolith will emit an electromagnetic pulse with a time duration of the order of nano seconds through a process known as the Askaryan effect. It has been shown that in an observing window around 150 MHz there is a maximum chance for detecting this radiation with radio telescopes commonly used in astronomy. In 50 hours of observation time with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope array we have set a new limit on the flux of neutrinos, summed over all flavors, with energies in excess of $4\times10^{22}$ eV.
