Searches for neutrinos from fast radio bursts with IceCube

Understand

Although IceCube has discovered a diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux, the underlying sources of these neutrinos remain unknown.

• Transient astrophysical objects, such as fast radio bursts (FRBs), could explain a large percentage of the measured flux.
• We present the analysis techniques of IceCube searches for MeV to TeV neutrinos from FRBs.
• As no significant correlation between IceCube neutrinos and FRBs has been found, we present the first limit on MeV neutrino emission from FRBs and the most constraining limits for neutrinos with GeV to TeV energies.
