Abstract
The Askaryan Radio Array (ARA) is an ultrahigh energy (UHE, > 10^{17} eV) neutrino detector designed to observe neutrinos by searching for the radio waves emitted by the relativistic products of neutrino-nucleon interactions in Antarctic ice. In this paper, we present constraints on the diffuse flux of ultrahigh energy neutrinos between 10^{16} and 10^{21} eV resulting from a search for neutrinos in two complementary analyses, both analyzing four years of data (2013–2016) from the two deep stations (A2, A3) operating at that time. We place a 90% CL upper limit on the diffuse all flavor neutrino flux at 10^{18} eV of EF(E) = 5.6 x 10^{-16} cm^{-2}s^{-1}sr^{-1}. This analysis includes four times the exposure of the previous ARA result and represents approximately 1/5th he exposure expected from operating ARA until the end of 2022.
