    We measure the horizontal (|cos( θ z )|<0.14 corresponding to a slant depth cut 14 kmwe) neutrino-induced muon flux ( E μ>1.8 GeV) in Soudan 2 to be 4.01 ± 0.50 ± 0.30 × 10 −13 cm −2 sr −1 s −1. From the absence of horizontal muons with large energy loss, we set a limit on the flux of muon neutrinos from active galactic nuclei.
