  • While atmospheric muons can be easily filtered out atmospheric neutrinos are an irreducible back-ground for diffuse extra-terrestrial neutrino fluxes.
  • The main principle in this thesis is that it is possible to overcome the theoretical uncertainty in the magnitude of the prompt neutrino fluxes by deriving their intensity from a measurement of the down-going prompt muon flux.
  • An attempt to constrain this flux using this principle was made and analysis of the down-going muon data was performed to constrain the RPQM model of prompt muons by a factor of 3.67 under a strict set of simplifying assumptions.
