Density plot of expected neutrino event number in IceCube based on the internal shock model for GRB 130427A. The total number
N
tot (muons + cascades) and
N
μ (muons only) are calculated in the two-dimensional parameter space η and
p
. Here,
R
d
is the internal shock radius for a 1 ms variability timescale (see Section 3). The value of
N is represented the by color; however, for
N
tot and
N
μ the value of the color coding is different—see the upper and lower legends. The contours where
N
tot = 1 and
N
μ = 1 are also shown by solid and dashed lines, respectively. The other energy fractions are taken as constants,
e
= 0.1 and
B
= 0.01. The IceCube null result favors the yellow and blue regions, e.g., a high η.
