Description
The discovery of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos by IceCube has opened a new window to study some of the most energetic cosmic sources and their ability to accelerate particles to extreme energies, in particular hadronic cosmic rays. These high-energy neutrinos should be accompanied by gamma rays at production, so their joint detection (or a lack of it) can cast light on the properties of the emission region and its opacity to high-energy photons. I will summarize recent results in joint neutrino and gamma-ray studies and present an overview of new opportunities to appear in the near future as new multi-messenger instruments go online over the next few years.
