While the inherent uncertainties are large, flux predictions at a measurable level are obtained for reasonable choices of parameters if strange quark matter is absolutely stable. This allows a direct test of the strange matter hypothesis.Published versionAstrophysicsHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyNuclear Theorytext
