77. Astrophysical neutrinos: IceCube highlights

Delia Tosi (DESY)

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory features a cubic-kilometer volume of instrumented ice at the geographic South Pole. A high energy astrophysical neutrino flux has been confirmed since 2013 as an excess of neutrinos above 10 TeV compared to the expectation from atmospheric neutrino background. This excess, nowadays significant at >6 sigma level, has been observed both in neutrino interactions...

21. What have we learnt about the sources of ultra-high energy cosmic rays via Neutrino Astronomy ?

Shigeru Yoshida (Chba University)

The IceCube neutrino observatory has detected the bulk of cosmic neutrinos with energies from TeV to PeV together with the stringent limits on the EeV-energy neutrino flux. It has already contained rich informative implications to the yet-unknown origin of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. In this talk we discuss what the neutrino observations have revealed the characteristics of cosmic accelerators.

74. Results from the ANTARES neutrino telescope

A primary goal of a deep-sea neutrino telescopes as ANTARES is the search for astrophysical neutrinos in the TeV-PeV range. ANTARES has been running in its final configuration since 2008; it comprise an array of 885 photomultipliers tubes housed in optical modules, detecting the Cherenkov light induced by charged particles produced by neutrino interactions in and around the instrumented...

45. KM3NeT HIGHLIGHTS

Piera Sapienza (Laboratorio Nazionale del Sud INFN)

The KM3NeT Collaboration aims at the discovery and subsequent observation of high neutrino sources in the Universe (ARCA) and at the determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy (ORCA). The KM3NeT technologies, current status and expected performances are reported. In particular the ARCA detector is described and its perspectives for detection of high energy neutrinos signals from different...

34. ICARUS

The ICARUS-T600 is the biggest LAr-TPC detector ever realized. The ICARUS Collaboration concluded a very successful, long duration run with the T600 detector at the LNGS underground laboratory, taking data both with the CNGS neutrino beam and with cosmic rays. It performed a sensitive search for anomalous nue appearance as suggested by LSND signal and experimental neutrino anomalies at...

40. UHE neutrino overlapping on UHECR rarest narrow clustering on galactic plane

Daniele Fargion (Università Roma 1)

07/07/2016, 17:50

The recent UHECR events by AUGER and TA offered wide clustering as the North and South Hot Spot possibly related to near AGN as M82 and Cen A, as well as rare narrow clustering along SS433 and in opposite side of the galactic plane multiplet events: we tag them, with a very few other sky regions, a couple of years ago. Last year highest UHE tens-hundreds TeV neutrino events did...
