Physics & Astronomy Colloquium





Search For New Phenomena and Cosmic Accelerators with High Energy Neutrinos


Dr. Carsten Rott
University of Utah
Abstract: We have arrived at a special moment in time, where we can now observe the Universe in fundamentally new ways using high energy neutrinos, gamma rays, cosmic-rays, and gravitational waves. By viewing the Universe through these cosmic messengers and in their combination, an era of discoveries awaits us. This talk will be focused on the tremendous progress that has been achieved on the neutrino frontier in our cosmic exploration. Latest results from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory including the detection of an event at the Glashow resonance energy, the observation of a diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux, hints for clustering in the neutrino skymap and the multi-messenger observation of a flaring blazar coincident with energetic neutrino emissions will be reviewed. Prospects for discovering more extra-terrestrial high-energy neutrino sources, including those in our solar system, and ways to search for hints of physics beyond the standard model at energy scales beyond the reach of accelerators will be discussed. Plans for the next generation neutrino observatories will be reviewed.
