Sensitivity of the NEMO telescope to neutrinos from microquasars
Abstract
We present the results of Monte Carlo simulation studies of the capability of the proposed NEMO telescope to detect TeV muon neutrinos from Galactic microquasars. In particular we determined the number of the detectable events from each known microquasar together with the expected atmospheric neutrino and muon background events. We also discuss the detector sensitivity to neutrino fluxes expected from microquasars, optimizing the event selection in order to reject the atmospheric background, and we show the number of events surviving the event selection.
