Extremely energetic cosmic neutrinos: Opportunities for astrophysics, particle physics, and cosmology
arXiv:hep-ph/0510341 · doi:10.1142/S0217751X06033283
Abstract
Existing and planned observatories for cosmic neutrinos open up a huge window in energy from 10^7 to 10^17 GeV. Here, we discuss in particular the possibilities to use extremely energetic cosmic neutrinos as a diagnostic of astrophysical processes, as a tool for particle physics beyond the Standard Model, and as a probe of cosmology.
