Prof. Francis Halzen (University of Wisconsin Madison)25/09/2017, 10:20High-energy neutrino observations and perspectivesTalk (20'+5')The IceCube project has transformed a cubic kilometer of natural Antarctic ice into a neutrino detector. The instrument detects more than 100,000 neutrinos per year in the GeV-to-PeV energy range. Among those, we have isolated a flux of high-energy cosmic neutrinos. I will discuss the latest measurements of the cosmic neutrino flux and their implications for its possible origin(s). From the...Go to contribution page

Dr Markus Ackermann (DESY)25/09/2017, 10:45High-energy neutrino observations and perspectivesTalk (20'+5')IceCube is the world's most sensitive neutrino telescope located at the geographic South Pole. With the discovery of a flux of high-energy cosmic neutrinos it has opened a new window for astronomy. Neutrinos allow to study the most extreme environments of our universe even in regions from which photons cannot escape, and help to understand the mechanisms of particle acceleration in the cosmos....Go to contribution page

Ms Dorothea Samtleben (NIKHEF, Amsterdam)25/09/2017, 11:10High-energy neutrino observations and perspectivesTalk (20'+5')ANTARES, the largest underwater neutrino telescope in the Northern Hemisphere, has been continuously operating since 2007 in the Mediterranean Sea. The transparency of the water allows for a very good angular resolution in the reconstruction of signatures of interactions from neutrinos of all flavors. This results in unprecedented sensitivity for neutrino source searches in the Southern Sky...Go to contribution page

Carlos de los Heros (Uppsala University)25/09/2017, 11:35High-energy neutrino observations and perspectivesTalk (20'+5')Large-scale neutrino telescopes offer interesting possibilities to address particle physics topics ranging from particle searches to neutrino oscillations or tests of fundamental laws. They can even do so at energy ranges not accessible to accelerators, providing a much desired complementarity to accelerator-based physics. I will review recent results from the existing high-energy neutrino...Go to contribution page

Maurizio Spurio (BO)26/09/2017, 09:00High-energy neutrino observations and perspectivesTalk (20'+5')New windows in the study of the high-energy universe have been opened by large volume detectors in underground laboratories or underwater/ice, huge surface shower arrays, particle detectors sent into space and by gravitational wave interferometers. Neutrino observations play a central role in multi-messenger strategies in astrophysics, cosmology and particle physics. The talk intends to survey...Go to contribution page

Aldo Morselli (ROMA2)26/09/2017, 09:50High-energy neutrino observations and perspectivesTalk (20'+5')Measurement of cosmic rays and gamma rays made with satellites can give very useful information on present and future High Energy Neutrinos data. Here we will review the most important connectionsGo to contribution page

Dr Dariusz Gora (Institute of Nuclear Physics Polish Academy of Sciences, PL-31342 Krakow, Poland)26/09/2017, 10:15Multimessenger physicsTalk (20'+5')The MAGIC telescopes, located at the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory (2200 a.s.l.) in the Canary Island of La Palma, are placed on the top of a mountain, from where a window of visibility of about $5^{\circ}$ in zenith and $80^{\circ}$ in azimuth is open in the direction of the surrounding ocean. This allows to search for a signature of particle showers induced by earth-skimming cosmic...Go to contribution page
