Multi-messenger observations of a flaring blazar coincident with high-energy neutrino IceCube-170922A
read the original abstract
Individual astrophysical sources previously detected in neutrinos are limited to the Sun and the supernova 1987A, whereas the origins of the diffuse flux of high-energy cosmic neutrinos remain unidentified. On 22 September 2017 we detected a high-energy neutrino, IceCube-170922A, with an energy of approximately 290 TeV. Its arrival direction was consistent with the location of a known gamma-ray blazar TXS 0506+056, observed to be in a flaring state. An extensive multi-wavelength campaign followed, ranging from radio frequencies to gamma-rays. These observations characterize the variability and energetics of the blazar and include the first detection of TXS 0506+056 in very-high-energy gamma-rays. This observation of a neutrino in spatial coincidence with a gamma-ray emitting blazar during an active phase suggests that blazars may be a source of high-energy neutrinos.

A Unified Explanation of Gamma-Ray and Neutrino Spectra from Astrophysical Sources Based on the Gluon Condensation Model
The Gluon Condensation model fits gamma-ray spectra of TXS 0506+056 and NGC 1068 with neutrino predictions consistent with IceCube, but predicts spectral hardening that disfavors it for SNR G54.1+0.3.
