Data set for the 2007-2017 ANTARES search for cosmic neutrino point sources

Introduction

The present data set corresponds to the track sample (muon neutrino candidates) of a study meant to search for a point sources with data collected from January 2007 to December 2017 by the ANTARES neutrino telescope. Attached below are the effective area, the acceptance, the cumulative angular resolution distribution and the point spread function for an E-2 source spectrum. This sample encompasses the two previous released sets, with similar cuts. This increased lifetime amounts to 3125 days and to a total number of 8754 events.

    This file includes the declination (degrees), right ascension (degrees), detected number of hits, estimated angular resolution (degrees) and MJD (days) for each of the events of the same sample.
