Constraining the environment of neutrino-emitting regions in jets of FSRQs
(Sissa Medialab, 2019)
Recently, the gamma-ray blazar TXS 0506+056 has been proposed as the source of neutrino
events detected by IceCube in 2014-15 and 2017. This has further pushed the idea of blazar jets
being among those cosmic sites where ...
Calorimetric neutrino expectations from bright blazar flares
(Sissa Medialab, 2019)
Blazar jets are extreme environments, in which relativistic proton interactions with an ultraviolet
photon field could give rise to photopion production. High-confidence associations of individual
high-energy neutrinos ...
Search for High-redshift Blazars with Fermi/LAT
(Sissa Medialab, 2019)
High-redshift blazars (z ≥ 2.5) are one of the most powerful classes of γ-ray sources in the Universe. These objects possess the highest jet powers and luminosities and have black-hole masses
often in excess of 109
solar ...
