A hadronic model with two free parameters shows proton-photon interactions can supply enough pairs for observed coronal optical depths above a critical Eddington ratio, with neutrino luminosity scaling as L_X^2/L_Edd below and L_X above that threshold.
The diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux is interpreted as dominated by a single source class with dominant pγ production for target photon temperatures of 0.1-1 keV.
A Comptonization model of AGN coronae combined with Monte-Carlo photopion production and cosmological evolution can account for IceCube's ~100 TeV and sub-PeV neutrinos using only photohadronic processes.
