abstract

The bright BL Lac object TXS 0506+056 is a most likely counterpart of the IceCube neutrino event EHE 170922A. The lack of this redshift prevents a comprehensive understanding of the modeling of the source. We present high signal-to-noise optical spectroscopy, in the range 4100-9000 $\textrm{\AA}$, obtained at the 10.4m Gran Telescopio Canarias. The spectrum is characterized by a power law continuum and is marked by faint interstellar features. In the regions unaffected by these features, we found three very weak (EW $\sim$ 0.1 $\textrm{\AA}$) emission lines that we identify with [O II] 3727 $\textrm{\AA}$, [O III] 5007 $\textrm{\AA}$, and [N II] 6583 $\textrm{\AA}$, yielding the redshift z = 0.3365$\pm$0.0010.

Active Galactic Nuclei as high-energy neutrino sources

astro-ph.HE · 2026-06-29 · accept · novelty 2.5

AGN (jetted and non-jetted) are viable high-energy neutrino sources, with TXS 0506+056 and NGC 1068 as the only statistically significant associations so far, while gamma-ray blazars contribute only a small fraction of the diffuse flux.
