TL;DR
This paper discusses how orbiting detectors can observe ultrahigh energy neutrino interactions by detecting upward-going showers in the atmosphere, highlighting the correlation between neutrino energy and impact parameter.
Contribution
It introduces a method for detecting neutrino interactions using orbiting detectors and analyzes the development of upward-going neutrino-induced showers.
Findings
Orbiting detectors can effectively observe neutrino-induced showers.
A correlation exists between neutrino energy and impact parameter.
Upward-going showers provide a signature for neutrino detection.
Abstract
Orbiting detectors will be able to observe showers initiated by neutrinos penetrating the Earth and interacting close to their exit point. There is a correlation between the impact parameter of the incident neutrino and its energy. We study the development of upward going, neutrino induced showers in the atmosphere.
