Measurement of the atmospheric neutrino-induced upgoing muon flux using MACRO

M. Ambrosio, +135 more
- 27 Aug 1998 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a measurement of the flux of neutrino-induced upgoing muons ( ν >∼ 100 GeV) using the MACRO detector is presented, where the ratio of the observed to expected events integrated over all zenith angles is 0.74 ± 0.036 (stat) ±0.13 (theoretical).
Journal ArticleDOI

Seasonal variations in the underground muon intensity as seen by MACRO

M. Ambrosio, +133 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors search for a correlation between variations in the underground muon rate, Nμ, and seasonal temperature variation in the atmosphere with high statistical significance and find that these correlations are present with high significance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low energy atmospheric muon neutrinos in MACRO

M. Ambrosio, +123 more
- 06 Apr 2000 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the measurement of two event samples induced by atmospheric ν μ of average energy E ν ∼4 GeV with an angular distribution similar to that expected from the Bartol atmospheric neutrino flux.
Journal ArticleDOI

The macro detector at the Gran Sasso Laboratory

TL;DR: The MACRO detector at Gran Sasso as mentioned in this paper is a large area detector, the acceptance for isotropic particle fluxes being around 10 000 m 2 sr, designed to search for rare phenomena in the cosmic radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Study of the ultrahigh-energy primary-cosmic-ray composition with the MACRO experiment

Steven Ahlen, +128 more
- 01 Aug 1992 - 
TL;DR: The predictions are based on a Monte Carlo simulation of the hadronic interactions of cosmic-ray nuclei, followed by a detailed tracking of the muons through the rock and the experimental apparatus, and show good sensitivity of the MACRO detector to primary composition.
