Origin of High Energy Neutrinos:Cosmic Accelerators Particles (electrons, protons, etc) areaccelerated to high energies via Fermishock acceleration High energy protons collide withambient protons and photons Hadronic production of pions, kaonsand D-mesons which decay intoneutrinos

Cosmic AcceleratorsPhysics Today 2009

Observed High Energy Particlesfrom the Sky Cosmic Rays (energy up to 1021 eV) Gamma - rays (energy up to 1013 eV) Atmospheric Neutrinos (energy up to 109 eV ) Astrophysical Neutrinos (30GeV – 2 PeV)

Active Galaxy

High Energy Gamma Rays Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) areprodigious particle accelerators and themost powerful radiation sources known inthe Universe, with luminosities rangingfrom 1042 – 1048 erg/s. Over 50 AGNs observed by EGRET in MeVenergy range, and about 15 AGNs in TeVrange.

Cosmic Neutrinos Solar Neutrinos (MeV energies) SN 1987A (MeV energies) Atmospheric Neutrinos (GeV to TeVenergies) Astrophysical Neutrinos (AGN, GRB,cosmogenic, etc; GeV to EeV energies) Neutrinos from Dark Matter Decay orDark Matter Annihilation?

Neutrino fluxes

First Observation of HE Cosmic Neutrinos

Mechanism for particle production inastrophysical source Electrons and protons are accelerated tovery high energy in internal shocks viaFermi shock acceleration. Electrons cooldown rapidly via synchrotron radiation inthe presence of the magnetic field In an optically thin envirement, theserelativistic electrons emit synchrotronphotons which are observed as gamma-rayson Earth

Could Observed Astrophysical Neutrinosbe Due to Charm from Slow-jetSupernovae?

Theoretical issues with charm production

Theoretical uncertainties

Reducing theoretical uncertainties Use total charm cross section measured up toLHC energies (ALICE, LHCb) Use differential charm distributons (transversemomentum and rapidity distributions measuredby LHCb at 7TeV and 13TeV Evaluate charm production in severalperturbative QCD approached: NLO pQCD, dipolemodel and k T factorization approach.

Summary Astrophysical neutrinos are valuable probes of newphysics (solar and atmospheric neutrinos haveprovided us with the very first indication thatneutrinos have mass).Ultrahigh energy cosmic neutrinos (from AGNs,GRB, SJS, etc,) probe physics at energiesbeyond the LHC Dark matter which decays into neutrinos givesunique signatures in observed neutrino spectrum(explains excess in IceCube data?) Understanding of astrophysical neutrino fluxproduced in pp collisions at energies close orabove the LHC is very important – charmcontribution dominant at high energies.
