Abstract

The ultrahigh energy neutrino cross section is well understood in the standard model for neutrino energies up to 1012^{12} GeV. Test of neutrino oscillations (νμντ\nu_\mu\leftrightarrow\nu_\tau) from extragalactic sources of neutrinos are possible with large underground detectors. Measurments of horizontal air shower event rates at neutrino energies above 1010^{10} GeV will be able to constrain nonstandard model contributions to the neutrino-nucleon cross section, e.g., from mini-black hole production.
