Joint constraints on Galactic diffuse neutrino emission from ANTARES and IceCube

A. Albert, M. André, M. Anghinolfi +454

The existence of diffuse Galactic neutrino production is expected from cosmic ray interactions with Galactic gas and radiation fields. Thus, neutrinos are a unique messenger offeri…

Multipole analysis of IceCube data to search for dark matter accumulated in the Galactic halo

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, M. Ackermann +299

Dark matter which is bound in the Galactic halo might self-annihilate and produce a flux of stable final state particles, e.g. high energy neutrinos. These neutrinos can be detecte…
