Correlating prompt GRB photons with neutrinos
Ignacio Taboada, Michelangelo V. D'Agostino
It is standard in theoretical neutrino astrophysics to use a broken power law approximation, based on the Band function, to describe the average photon flux of the prompt emission…
Search for Astrophysical Neutrino Transients with IceCube DeepCore
Chujie Chen, Pranav Dave, Ignacio Taboada
DeepCore, as a densely instrumented sub-detector of IceCube, extends IceCube's energy reach down to about 10 GeV, enabling the search for astrophysical transient sources, e.g., cho…
Trinity: An Air-Shower Imaging System for the Detection of Ultrahigh Energy Neutrinos
A. Nepomuk Otte, Anthony M. Brown, Abraham D. Falcone +2
Efforts to detect ultrahigh energy neutrinos are driven by several objectives: What is the origin of astrophysical neutrinos detected with IceCube? What are the sources of ultrahig…
Neutrinos from Primordial Black Hole Evaporation
Pranav Dave, Ignacio Taboada
Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) are candidates for dark matter as well as ultra-high energy cosmic rays. PBHs are speculated to exist over a large range of masses, from below $10^{15…
Multiflavor and multiband observations of neutrinos from core collapse supernovae
Ignacio Taboada
It has been proposed that the gamma ray burst - supernova connection may manifest itself in a significant fraction of core collapse supernovae possessing mildly relativistic jets t…
Trinity's Sensitivity to Isotropic and Point-Source Neutrinos
Andrew Wang, Chaoxian Lin, Nepomuk Otte +5
The neutrino band above 10 PeV remains one of the last multi-messenger windows to be opened, a challenge that several groups tackle. One of the proposed instruments is Trinity, a s…
Trinity: An Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescope to Search for Ultra-High-Energy Neutrinos
Anthony M. Brown, Mahdi Bagheri, Michele Doro +7
Earth-skimming neutrinos are those which travel through the Earth's crust at a shallow angle. For Ultra-High-Energy (E > 1 PeV; UHE) earth-skimming tau neutrinos, there is a high-p…
Cyberinfrastructure Requirements to Enhance Multi-messenger Astrophysics
Philip Chang, Gabrielle Allen, Warren Anderson +39
The identification of the electromagnetic counterpart of the gravitational wave event, GW170817, and discovery of neutrinos and gamma-rays from TXS 0506+056 heralded the new era of…
Prospects for the detection of GRBs with HAWC
Ignacio Taboada, Rudy C. Gilmore
The observation of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) with very-high-energy (VHE) gamma rays can provide understanding of the particle acceleration mechanisms in GRBs, and can also be used to…
Multi-Messenger Astrophysics: Harnessing the Data Revolution
Gabrielle Allen, Warren Anderson, Erik Blaufuss +27
The past year has witnessed discovery of the first identified counterparts to a gravitational wave transient (GW 170817A) and a very high-energy neutrino (IceCube-170922A). These s…
Trinity: An Air-Shower Imaging Instrument to detect Ultrahigh Energy Neutrinos
A. Nepomuk Otte, Anthony M. Brown, Michele Doro +7
Trinity is a proposed air-shower imaging system optimized for the detection of earth-skimming ultrahigh energy tau neutrinos with energies between GeV and GeV. Tri…
First Results from HAWC on GRBs
Dirk Lennarz, Ignacio Taboada
In this contribution, the first results of HAWC, searching for VHE gamma-ray emission from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) reported by , are presented. The HAWC gamma-ray o…
A test of the hadronic origin of -rays from blazars with up to month-later follow-up of IceCube Alerts with Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes
Damiano F. G. Fiorillo, Konstancja Satalecka, Ignacio Taboada +1
The sources of IceCube neutrinos are as yet unknown. The multi-messenger observation of their emission in -rays can be a guide to their identification, as exemplified by the ca…
A time variability test for neutrino sources identified by IceCube
Pranav Dave, Ignacio Taboada
IceCube has reported evidence for neutrino emission from the Seyfert-II galaxy NGC 1068 and the blazar TXS 0506+056. The former was identified in a time-integrated search, and the…
Constrains on the extragalactic origin of IceCube's neutrinos using HAWC
Ignacio Taboada, Chun Fai Tung, Joshua Wood
IceCube has discovered an unresolved and isotropic flux of neutrinos between 10 TeV and 8 PeV. Extragalactic origin for this flux is usually assumed, as well as a correlation with…
