To obtain its density profile , however, one must assume a Geophysical Earth Model which depends on chemical components, temperature, etc.
Neutrino Radiography (measuring neutrino absorption to deduce column depth) on the other hand, gives density information that is totally independent of any geophysical model.
We use high-energy tail of atmospheric neutrino, for neutrino source, which is currently the unique available candidate for performing neutrino radiography.
High-energy atmospheric neutrinos are thus utilized for neutrino radiography of the core of the Earth.
