Prompt neutrinos from atmospheric charm in the general-mass variable-flavor-number scheme
Abstract We present predictions for the prompt-neutrino flux arising from the decay of charmed mesons and baryons produced by the interactions of high-energy cosmic rays in the Earth’s atmosphere, making use of a QCD approach on the basis of the general-mass variable-flavor-number scheme for the des...
