Scientific paper

In this paper we consider a model for the neutrino production in microquasars in which nuclei, accelerated in the jet, can lose efficiently neutrons in collisions with the massive star and accretion disk thermal radiation. Neutrons propagate towards the disk and the massive star producing neutrinos in collisions with the matter. The model predicts up to several neutrino events per km3 per yr from Cyg X-3, provided that nuclei are accelerated to the Lorentz factors above 106 with a power law spectrum with an index close to 2.
