Prompt atmospheric neutrino flux from the various QCD models

Abstract

We evaluate the prompt atmospheric neutrino flux using the different QCD models for heavy quark production including the $b$ quark contribution. We include the nuclear correction and find it reduces the fluxes by $10\%-50\%$ according to the models. Our heavy quark results are compared with experimental data from RHIC, LHC and LHCb.
