Over the last decade, choked jets have attracted particular attention as potential sources of high-energy cosmic neutrinos. However, testing this hypothesis is challenging because of the missing gamma-ray counterpart, such that the identification of other electromagnetic signatures is of paramount importance. A choked-jet source is expected, for instance, because of core-collapse supernovae...
Extraterrestrial messengers can probe the presence of dark matter in the Milky Way and beyond. Among others, sizable anomalous fluxes of high-energy neutrinos expected from pair annihilation and decay of dark matter particles, giving neutrino telescopes a role in indirect searches. The energy features and space distribution of dark matter overdensity regions are used to characterise a signal...
