Problems in observation of extensive air showers generated by neutrinos are connected with an extremely small cross section of inelastic collisions of neutrinos with nuclei. However, two facts allow to search for showers generated by neutrinos: (1) a hadron cascade with the primary energy of more than 10^13 eV leaves a mountain ridge to the atmosphere from the depth ~ 300g/cm^2 without an esse ...

We calculate the flux of neutrinos generated by the propagation of ultra-high energy nuclei over cosmological distances. The propagation takes into account the interactions with cosmic background radiations including the CMB and the most recent estimates of higher energy (infra-red, optical, and ultra violet) backgrounds. We assume that the composition of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs ... More

We calculate the yield and flavor content of high energy neutrinos produced in astrophysical sources with and without magnetic fields varying their interaction depth. We pay special attention to the multiple scattering of secondaries on background photons as well as the direct production of neutrinos in decays of charm mesons. If multiple scattering of nucleons becomes important, the ne ... More

Potential sources for the ultrahigh energy cosmic ray flux are extragalactic source types such as active galactic nuclei and gama ray busts. With the prediction of hadronic processes in these sources, a diffuse neutrino flux ca be produced together with the charged cosmic ray component. To measure this diffuse neutrino flux is one of the main goals of the Antarctic Muon And Neutrino Detector ... More

A series of ice properties' measurements were made in December, 2006 in support of the balloon-borne ANITA neutrino detection effort. Of particular importance is the electric field attenuation length in the range 200-1000 MHz as well as signal transmission across the air-ice boundary. We present measurements of the temperature profile over the upper 100 meters of ice, radiofrequency attenuatio ... More

The RICE experiment, located at the South Pole, seeks detection of ultra-high energy neutrinos based on measurement of the coherent radiofrequency Cherenkov pulse created by an englacial neutrino-ice collision. Based on the eight-year dataset now accumulated by RICE, we report on updated results on the neutrino flux in the >100 PeV energy range, limits on neutrino production from gamma-ray bur ... More

The ANTARES collaboration is building an undersea neutrino telescope at 2400 m depth in the Mediterranean Sea. The experiment aims to detect high-energy cosmic neutrinos using a 3D array of 900 photomultipliers (PMTs) arranged in 12 strings. The advantages of neutrinos as astrophysical and cosmic messengers are that they open a new window to observe known astrophysical objects as well as to l ... More
