What is Lepton Fluxes from Atmospheric Charm about?

We reexamine the charm contribution to atmospheric lepton fluxes in the context of perturbative QCD. We include next-to-leading order corrections and discuss theoretical uncertainties due to the extrapolations of the gluon distributions at small-x. We show that the charm contribution to the atmospheric muon flux becomes dominant over the conventional contribution from pion and kaon decays at energies of about 10^5 GeV. We compare our fluxes with previous calculations.
