Fusco - Mu background ORCA Simulations

Speaker

Mr Luigi Antonio Fusco (INFN and University of Bologna)

Description

A strong background for the observation of atmospheric neutrino induced upgoing muons is due to the presence of wrongly reconstructed muons. A strategy for the rejection of this background is presented, relying on the output of the reconstruction code "reco".
