Data from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory – a cubic-kilometer particle detector built deep within Antarctic ice – reveals high-energy neutrino emission from within the Milky Way, according to ...

In a June 30 article in the journal Science, the IceCube Collaboration -- an international group of more than 350 scientists -- presents this new evidence of high-energy neutrino emission from the ...

Gamma-ray flares from blazars can be accompanied by high-energy neutrino emission. To better understand this phenomenon, an international research team has statistically analyzed 145 bright blazars.

There have been hints of such emission, but confirmation has proven elusive to date. The new study took another look, using the IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station.

Five views of the galactic plane. The top two are the Milky Way in visible and gamma ray light; third is the emission template for the expected neutrino flux; emission template from panel 3 ...

“A neutrino counterpart has now been measured, thus confirming what we know about our galaxy and cosmic ray sources,” said Sclafani, now a post-doctoral researcher at University of Maryland. The ...

DiKerby, who's also a member of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, ... These results show how observations of nearby supermassive black holes can reveal likely time windows for neutrino emissions.

Like most neutrino detectors, ... of neutrinos will be crucial to point the telescopes in the direction of the supernova and catch its electromagnetic emission early on,” adds Tamborra.

The mammoth IceCube Neutrino Observatory detects the nearly imperceptible particles – high-energy neutrinos – from space by using thousands of light sensors in a network buried deep within a cubic ...
