How bright can the brightest neutrino source be?

Ando, Shin'ichiro, Feyereisen, Michael R., Fornasa, Mattia

Understand

After the discovery of extraterrestrial high-energy neutrinos, the next major goal of neutrino telescopes will be identifying astrophysical objects that produce them.

The flux of the brightest source $F_{\rm max}$, however, cannot be probed by studying the diffuse neutrino intensity.
We aim at constraining $F_{\rm max}$ by adopting a broken power-law flux distribution, a hypothesis supported by observed properties of any generic astrophysical sources.
The first estimate of $F_{\rm max}$ comes from the fact that we can only observe one universe, and hence, the expected number of sources above $F_{\rm max}$ cannot be too small compared with one.
