IceCube's discovery of the astrophysical neutrino flux in the TeV-PeV range marked a crucial milestone in the development of high-energy neutrino astronomy. Recent searches identified the blazar TXS 0506+056 and the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 1068 as the first candidates for extragalactic neutrino emitters, standing out above the largely isotropic neutrino flux. While both objects are classified as...

IceCube has discovered a flux of astrophysical neutrinos and presented evidence for the first neutrino sources, a flaring blazar known as TXS 0506+056 and the active galaxy NGC 1068. However, the sources responsible for the majority of the astrophysical neutrino flux remain elusive. High-energy neutrinos can be produced when cosmic rays interact at their acceleration sites and during...

The accretion flows around supermassive black holes would be a part of emission sources of the IceCube neutrinos. The effects of the global structure of the magnetized accretion flows on the neutrino SEDs are, however, still uncertain. We, therefore, carry out the calculation of SEDs of high energy neutrinos by using three dimensional general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD)...

Over the past decade, a significant number of supernovae exhibiting luminosities that exceed $10^{43}\,\mathrm{erg\, s^{-1}}$ and characterized by narrow hydrogen lines in their spectra have been discovered. These supernovae are believed to be powered by the collision of ejected material with a dense circumstellar medium (CSM). The interaction of the SNe ejecta with the CSM results in a shock...

The ultra-high energy cosmic neutrinos, which usually perambulate gargantuan scales in the extragalactic universe, are expected to play a crucial role in determining the origin of cosmic rays as well as probing new physics extending even up to the Planck scale. This epitomizes the selling point of several currently running or planned neutrino telescopes. If neutrinos have magnetic moment owing...

Absorption and emission lines in the optical spectrum are typically used to investigate the presence of large-scale environments in active galactic nuclei (AGNs). BL Lac objects - which are a category of AGNs with the relativistic jet pointing directly to the observer - are supposed to represent a late evolution stage of AGNs. Their large-scale structures are probably poorer of material, which...

Resolving the origin of diffuse TeV-PeV neutrino emission measured by the IceCube Observatory is a key part of multi-messenger astronomy. We study the neutrino emission of Galactic and extragalactic source populations by investigating the relation between IceCube's point-source discovery potential and diffuse flux observations. For Galactic sources, we show that the flux of unresolved neutrino...

It is well known that our Universe is opaque to high-energy gamma-rays due to electromagnetic cascades over cosmological distances, resulting in a spectrum of secondary gamma-rays at lower energies. In this talk, we will summarize the physics and features of such cascades and discuss their importance in the context of multimessenger astrophysics up to ultra-high energies. In particular, we...

Strong star-forming activity in astrophysical environments leads to an enhancement of hadronic gamma-ray and neutrino emissions.

The detection of MeV-GeV neutrinos from astronomical sources is a long-lasting challenge for neutrino experiments. The low flux predicted for transient sources, such as solar flares, would require a detector with both a large instrumented volume as well as a high density of photomultipliers (PMTs) to resolve the low-energy signature. We discuss how KM3NeT can play a key role in the search for...

In recent years, significant strides have been made in the field of neutrino astronomy, with the discovery of the TeV/PeV astrophysical neutrino flux by the IceCube collaboration.

The detection of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos by IceCube has opened a new window on our Universe.

According to the observations up to date, there is more flux in cosmic neutrinos at lower energies (<100 TeV) than that could be expected from gamma rays, if they have the same sources. The diffuse gamma-ray sky observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is dominated by blazars (~80%), while recent studies suggest blazars might be only subdominant sources of the diffuse high-energy...

Ever since the discovery of neutrinos, we have wondered if neutrinos are their own antiparticles, and whether lepton number is violated or not. One remarkable possibility is that lepton-number violation in the Standard Model is soft. In such scenarios, neutrinos have a pseudo-Dirac nature, with a tiny mass difference between active and sterile states, having oscillations driven by this tiny...

Neutrino flavor oscillation is a widely studied physical phenomena with far reaching consequences in understanding the standard model of particle physics and to search for physics beyond it. Oscillation arises because of mixing of the mass states in flavor states, and their evolution over time. It is an inherent quantum system for which flavor transitions are traditionally studied with...
