Combining IceCube Muon Tracks and Cascades to measure the Galactic Diffuse Neutrino Flux

Jonas Hellrung, Julia Becker Tjus, Wolfgang Rhode

The diffuse Galactic neutrino flux is produced by cosmic rays interacting with the interstellar medium. The measurement of this flux can help to understand the distribution of cosm…
