SUMMARY:ECAP Seminar: Mirco Huennefeld
DESCRIPTION:Evidence for high-energy neutrinos from the Galactic plane\nThe Milky Way\, our home galaxy\, is visible to the eye as a faint band of light in the night sky. This emission from the Galactic plane extends over a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum\, from radio to gamma rays. A fraction of the gamma-ray emission is theorized to arise from cosmic rays interacting with the interstellar medium through the decay of neutral pions. The presence of this diffuse gamma-ray emission implies the existence of Galactic neutrinos produced in associated processes. Recently\, strong evidence for the emission of high-energy neutrinos in the Galactic plane was reported by IceCube\, a neutrino detector instrumenting a cubic kilometer of glacial ice at the South Pole. This observation\, enabled by novel tools based on deep learning\, thus opens a new window to study the high-energy universe\, allowing us to further probe the properties of our own Galaxy and the origin of cosmic rays. \nIn this contribution\, I will highlight the recent observation by IceCube and the technical advances that made it possible\, in addition to providing some future prospects.
