AMON Searches for Jointly-Emitting Neutrino + Gamma-Ray Transients

Understand

We present the results of archival coincidence analyses using public neutrino data from the 40-string configuration of IceCube (IC40) and contemporaneous public gamma-ray data from Fermi LAT.

• Our analyses have the potential to discover statistically significant coincidences between high-energy neutrino and gamma-ray signals, and hence, possible jointly-emitting neutrino/gamma-ray transients.
• This work is an example of more general multimessenger studies that the Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network (AMON) aims to perform.
• AMON is currently under development and will link multiple running and future high-energy neutrino, cosmic ray and follow-up observatories as well as gravitational wave facilities.
