Gammy-ray to neutrino connection with a focus on Active Galactic Nuclei (M10*)

• Subject Area: Astrophysics and Astronomy
• Term: since 2025
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 283604770

The project aims to deepen the understanding of high-energy neutrino sources, particularly Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), through a collaboration of neutrino physicists and astronomers. By putting the observational puzzle pieces of neutrino luminous objects and their gamma-ray emissions together, it is aimed at elucidating the role of AGNs in the diffuse neutrino signal observed by IceCube, and discovering signatures of cosmic factories of standard and non-standard particles beyond the current paradigm.
