The surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sensitive to ultra-high energy neutrinos in the cosmic radiation. These particles can interact close to ground, both through charged and neutral currents in the atmosphere (down-going) and, for tau neutrinos, through the Earth-skimming mechanism (up-going) where a tau lepton is produced in the Earth's crust that can emerge and decay in the atmosphere. Both types of neutrino-induced events produce an inclined shower that can be identified by the presence of a broad time structure of signals in the water-Cherenkov detectors. Using data collected from the surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we present the corresponding limits on the diffuse flux of ultra-high energy neutrinos. |
