Deciphering Cosmic Neutrinos with Multi-Messenger Astronomy

One of the most exciting recent results in astronomy is the observation of high-energy neutrinos by the IceCube Observatory in Antarctica. The origin of these neutrinos is as yet unknown. Astrophysical neutrinos are produced along with high-energy photons (gamma rays) via collisions of cosmic rays with gas and radiation. This project aims to identify neutrino sources via innovative IceCube data analyses that are tailored to multi-messenger sources. The grant supports the recruitment of one PhD student and two postdocs.
