A population of AGN coronae with magnetization parameters spanning up to σ ~ 10 can reproduce the entire observed diffuse neutrino flux from TeV to PeV energies.
Reconnection in transrelativistic AGN coronae can energize protons to tens of PeV, producing a neutrino spectrum consistent with NGC 1068 observations without tuning the proton spectral slope.
