WebDec 30, 2014 · We study general implications of the IceCube observations in the energy range from 10 6 GeV to 10 10 GeV for the origin of extragalactic ultrahigh energy cosmic rays assuming that high energy neutrinos are generated by the photomeson production of protons in the extragalactic universe. The PeV-energy neutrino flux observed by IceCube … WebApr 10, 2024 · In this case, the Bethe–Heitler pair production process becomes comparably important or even dominates over the photomeson process. We show that with a relatively low maximum proton energy with a Lorentz factor of 10 5 in the comoving frame, the cascade emission can still reproduce various types of high-energy spectra of GRBs.
