Search for cosmic sources in neutrino telescopes and time calibration in the ANTARES neutrino telescope
2018
Aunque la astronomía de neutrinos es una disciplina muy reciente, está resultando ser muy en un estado estimulante. Los diversos resultados publicados por la colaboración IceCube han mostrado la existencia de un flujo de neutrinos cósmicos de altas energías, del cual se desconoce su origen, y del que no se ha observado una dirección privilegiada. El telescopio de neutrinos ANTARES ha sido capaz de excluir la posibilidad de que algunos de los eventos observados por IceCube se hayan producido por una fuente puntual en la región del centro galáctico. Además, el último análisis de flujos difusos de ANTARES muestra un resultado compatible con el flujo observado por IceCube. Actualmente, existen …
Search for Cosmic Neutrino Point Sources with Four Year Data of the ANTARES Telescope
2012
In this paper, a time-integrated search for point sources of cosmic neutrinos is presented using the data collected from 2007 to 2010 by the ANTARES neutrino telescope. No statistically significant signal has been found and upper limits on the neutrino flux have been obtained. Assuming an E ¿2 n; spectrum, these flux limits are at 1-10 ¿10¿8 GeV cm¿2 s¿1 for declinations ranging from ¿90° to 40°. Limits for specific models of RX J1713.7¿3946 and Vela X, which include information on the source morphology and spectrum, are also given.
Numerical studies on neutrino oscillation physics in long baseline experiments
2018
This thesis examines the prospects of future long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments. Using computer simulation techniques, we calculate the experimental sensitivities for two experimental configurations in a set of important questions which are all relevant for modern day neutrino physics. First, we set focus on the determination of the θ23 octant, where the aim is to find whether the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle θ23 lies in the high octant, θ23 > 45◦, or in the low octant, θ23 < 45◦. On the other hand, we study how well the long baseline experiments could test the limits of the Standard Model by seeking deviations from the oscillation patterns that follow from the standard three…
