Propagation of tau neutrinos and tau leptons through the Earth and their detection in underwater/ice neutrino telescopes [PDF]
If muon neutrinos produced in cosmological sources oscillate, neutrino telescopes can have a chance to detect tau-neutrinos. In contrast to muon neutrinos the Earth is completely transparent for tau neutrinos thanks to the short life time of tau-leptons ...
