Abstract: (arXiv)
Simple approximations for fluxes of atmospheric muons and muon neutrinos are developed which display explicitly how the fluxes depend on primary cosmic ray energy and on features of pion production. For energies of approximately 10 GeV and above the results are sufficiently accurate to calculate response functions and to use for estimates of systematic uncertainties.- muon: cosmic radiation
- neutrino/mu: cosmic radiation
- cosmic radiation: flux
- approximation
- nucleon: cosmic radiation
- cosmic radiation: primary
- pi: production
- K: production
- cosmic radiation: energy spectrum
- cross section: energy dependence
