Are There Correlations in the HAWC and IceCube High Energy Skymaps Outside the Galactic Plane?
arXiv:2312.15125 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.110.023009
Abstract
We use publicly-available data to perform a search for correlations of high energy neutrino candidate events detected by IceCube and high-energy photons seen by the HAWC collaboration. Our search is focused on unveiling such correlations outside of the Galactic plane. This search is sensitive to correlations in the neutrino candidate and photon skymaps which would arise from a population of unidentified point sources. We find no evidence for such a correlation, but suggest strategies for improvements with new data sets.
