Turbulent AGN coronae as the origin of diffuse neutrinos up to PeV energies

Qi-Rui Yang, Ruo-Yu Liu, Xiang-Yu Wang

It has been shown that the turbulence acceleration in AGN coronae can account for 1-10 TeV neutrinos from some AGNs, such as the Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068. Based on this, there are a…

Diagnosing the AGN population origin of TeV neutrinos with their spatial correlation

Xiao-Bin Chen, Ruo-Yu Liu, Xiang-Yu Wang

The recent detection of TeV neutrinos from nearby Seyfert galaxies (e.g., NGC 1068) by IceCube suggests that active galactic nuclei (AGNs) could make a significant contribution to…
