At these energies, however, the diffuse flux of cosmic neutrinos discovered by IceCube seems to be larger than the atmospheric one. Here we study the possibility to detect a neutrino interaction in down-going atmospheric events at km3 telescopes. The neutrino signal will always appear together with a muon bundle that reveals its atmospheric origin and, generically, it implies an increase in the detector activity with the slant depth. We propose a simple algorithm that could separate these events from regular muon bundles.}, organization = {Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities PID2019-107844GB-C21/AEI/10.13039/501100011033}, organization = {Junta de Andalucia European Commission FQM 101- SOMM17/6104/UGR- P18-FR-1962- P18-FR-5057}, organization = {Junta de Andalucia}, organization = {Program Es-tancias Postdoctorales en el Extranjero 2019-2020 of CONACYT, Mexico}, organization = {Universidad de Granada/CBUA}, organization = {Catedra Marcos Moshinsky (Fundacion Marcos Moshinsky)}, publisher = {Elsevier}, keywords = {Neutrino telescopes}, keywords = {Muons}, keywords = {Cosmic rays}, title = {Neutrino events within muon bundles at neutrino telescopes}, doi = {10.1016/j.astropartphys.2021.102646}, author = {Gutiérrez González, Miguel and Hernández Tomé, G. and Illana Calero, José Ignacio and Masip Mellado, Manuel}, }
