Title: Glashow resonance as a window into cosmic neutrino sources

Abstract

The Glashow resonance at E_ν=6.3 PeV is a measure of the $$\bar{ν}$$_e content of the astrophysical neutrino flux. The fractional $$\bar{ν}$$_e content depends on the neutrino production model at the cosmic neutrino source, and the environment at the source. Thus, the strength of the Glashow resonance event rate is a potential window into astrophysical sources. We quantify the "Glashow resonometer" and comment on the significance that no Glashow events are observed in the IceCube three-year data.

The Glashow resonance at IceCube: signatures, event rates and pp vs. pγ interactions

Journal Article Bhattacharya, Atri ; Gandhi, Raj ; Rodejohann, Werner ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We revisit the signatures of the Glashow resonance process ν-bar {sub e}e → W in the high-energy astrophysical neutrino observatory IceCube. We note that in addition to the standard hadronic and electromagnetic showers produced by an incoming neutrino at the resonance energy of E{sub ν} ≈ 6.3 PeV, there are two clear signals of the process: the 'pure muon' from ν-bar {sub e}e → ν-bar {sub μ}μ and the 'contained lollipop' from ν-bar {sub e}e → ν-bar {sub τ}τ. The event rate and the signal-to-background ratio (the ratio of the resonant to concurrent non-resonant processes) are calculated for each typemore »« less

Astrophysical neutrino production diagnostics with the Glashow resonance

We study the Glashow resonance ν-bar {sub e} + e {sup −} → W {sup −} → hadrons at 6.3 PeV as diagnostic of the production processes of ultra-high energy neutrinos. The focus lies on describing the physics of neutrino production from pion decay as accurate as possible by including the kinematics of weak decays and Monte Carlo simulations of pp and pγ interactions. We discuss optically thick (to photohadronic interactions) sources, sources of cosmic ray ''nuclei'' and muon damped sources. Even in the proposed upgrade IceCube-Gen2, a discrimination of scenarios such as pp versus pγ is extremely challenging undermore »« less

Multi-PeV Signals from a New Astrophysical Neutrino Flux beyond the Glashow Resonance

Journal Article Kistler, Matthew D. ; Laha, Ranjan - Physical Review Letters

The IceCube neutrino discovery was punctuated by three showers with E_ν ≈ 1–2 PeV. Interest is intense in possible fluxes at higher energies, though a deficit of E_ν ≈ 6 PeV Glashow resonance events implies a spectrum that is soft and/or cutoff below ~ few PeV. However, IceCube recently reported a through-going track depositing 2.6 ± 0.3 PeV. A muon depositing so much energy can imply E_νμ ≳ 10 PeV. Alternatively, we find a tau can deposit this much energy, requiring E_ντ ~ 10× higher. Here, we show that extending soft spectral fits from TeV-PeV data is unlikely to yieldmore »« less

End of the cosmic neutrino energy spectrum

Journal Article Anchordoqui, L. A. ; Barger, V. ; Goldberg, H. ; ... - Physics Letters. B

There may be a high-energy cutoff of neutrino events in IceCube data. In particular, IceCube does not observe either continuum events above 2PeV, or the Standard Model Glashow-resonance events expected at 6.3PeV. There are also no higher energy neutrino signatures in the ANITA and Auger experiments. This absence of high-energy neutrino events motivates a fundamental restriction on neutrino energies above a few PeV. We postulate a simple scenario to terminate the neutrino spectrum that is Lorentz-invariance violating, but with a limiting neutrino velocity that is always smaller than the speed of light. If the limiting velocity of the neutrino appliesmore »« less

Detection of a particle shower at the Glashow resonance with IceCube

Journal Article Aartsen, M. G. ; Abbasi, R. ; Ackermann, M. ; ... - Nature (London)

The Glashow resonance describes the resonant formation of a W^- boson during the interaction of a high-energy electron antineutrino with an electron, peaking at an antineutrino energy of 6.3 petaelectronvolts (PeV) in the rest frame of the electron. Whereas this energy scale is out of reach for currently operating and future planned particle accelerators, natural astrophysical phenomena are expected to produce antineutrinos with energies beyond the PeV scale. Here we report the detection by the IceCube neutrino observatory of a cascade of high-energy particles (a particle shower) consistent with being created at the Glashow resonance.
