abstract
Production of muons and neutrinos in cosmic ray interactions with the atmosphere has been investigated with Monte Carlo models for hadronic interactions. The resulting conventional muon and neutrino fluxes (from $\pi$ and $K$ decays) agree well with earlier calculations, whereas our prompt fluxes from charm decays are significantly lower than earlier estimates. Charm production is mainly considered as a well defined perturbative QCD process, but we also investigate a hypothetical non-perturbative intrinsic charm component in the proton. The lower charm rate implies better prospects for detecting very high energy neutrinos from cosmic sources.

Beyond standard model particles in the atmospheric flux: a long-lived stau example
Atmospheric stau production from squark decays is computed with Z-moments; predicted IceCube-Gen2 event rates are tiny and LHC bounds are more restrictive.
