Ultra-high energy neutrinos and W, Z gauge bosons at the Pierre Auger Observatory

Abstract

A wide range of models beyond the Standard Model predict charged and neutral resonances, generically called W'- and Z'-bosons, respectively. We present a study of the impact of such resonances on the deep inelastic scattering of ultra-high energy neutrinos as well as on the resonant charged current e e- scattering (Glashow resonance). We find that the effects of such resonances can not be observed with the Pierre Auger Observatory or any foreseeable upgrade of it.
