The first week of the final field season for the IceCube Upgrade started out with delays. Figures. Of course, even though that’s not what you hope for, uncooperative weather at the South Pole is a fact of life, something to deal with in stride. The first group of IceCubers for…
Evidence for neutrino emission from X-ray-emitting galaxies
By Alisa King-Klemperer | | Research |
In 2022, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory at the South Pole announced evidence for high-energy neutrinos spewing from the “nearby” active galaxy NGC 1068. One of the brightest X-ray sources in the universe, NGC 1068 is an active galactic nucleus (AGN) with a central, supermassive black hole that actively gobbles up…
