abstract
The recent observation by the IceCube neutrino observatory of an astrophysical flux of neutrinos represents the "first light" in the nascent field of neutrino astronomy. The observed diffuse neutrino flux seems to suggest a much larger level of hadronic activity in the non-thermal universe than previously thought and suggests a rich discovery potential for a larger neutrino observatory. This document presents a vision for an substantial expansion of the current IceCube detector, IceCube-Gen2, including the aim of instrumenting a $10\,\mathrm{km}^3$ volume of clear glacial ice at the South Pole to deliver substantial increases in the astrophysical neutrino sample for all flavors. A detector of this size would have a rich physics program with the goal to resolve the sources of these astrophysical neutrinos, discover GZK neutrinos, and be a leading observatory in future multi-messenger astronomy programs.

Can Quasi-periodic Eruptions Produce Detectable High Energy Neutrinos?
Quasi-periodic eruptions could accelerate protons to tens of TeV, but their 10-year neutrino fluences and IceCube event rates are too low for individual detection except for very nearby sources.

Sterile-active resonance: A global qualitative picture
An analytic effective theory of the sterile-active MSW resonance in the (3+1) model reveals that only three channels, P(νe→νe), P(ν̄e→ν̄e), and P(ν̄μ→ν̄τ), carry unsuppressed on-peak resonance effects.
