Abstract

Cross sections for the charged-current interactions of ultrahigh-energy neutrinos with nucleons are evaluated in light of recent improvements in our knowledge of nucleon structure functions. For ${10}^{19}$-eV neutrinos, the cross section is an order of magnitude larger than the values traditionally used in astrophysical calculations. Some consequences for event rates from generic astrophysical neutrino sources are noted.
