Neutrino flux predictions for Galactic plerions

Abstract

We consider a class of plerions that have been detected in the TeV range, and investigate the possibility that the emission is due to π^0 decay. From the TeV flux we derive what is the expected νflux at Earth and find that this is likely to exceed the detection threshold of the upcoming km^2 neutrino detectors.
