Modeling TXS 0506+056 Neutrino Flares & AMEGO-X

ORAL

Abstract

TXS 0506+056 is the first multi-messenger blazar. The IceCube neutrino flares were detected once during a FermiLAT gamma-ray flare, and once during an apparently quiescent period electromagnetically. We apply a new one-zone, leptohadronic particle transport model to the broadband SED simultaneous with each neutrino event. The model is designed to examine the effects of particle acceleration on the observable data through self-consistent implementation of both acceleration and cooling processes. Additionally, we compare with other successful models from the literature that suggest divergent physical interpretations, and suggest that AMEGO-X is well poised to differentiate between these models through multi-messenger collaboration on future blazar flares.
