Multi-Flavor Neutrino Search from Cygnus Cocoon with IceCube

ORAL

Abstract

The Cygnus Cocoon is among the most luminous extended galactic γ-ray sources. It has been observed by various instruments, including Fermi, ARGO, HAWC, and most recently, LHAASO, detecting photons with energies up to ~1.4 PeV. Confirming the hadronic origin of these high-energy photons relies on detecting a neutrino excess. Our study focuses on searching for electron neutrinos, muon neutrinos, and tau neutrinos originating from the direction of the Cygnus Cocoon, utilizing data collected at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. Additionally, we will present results obtained from template-based measurements of galactic diffuse neutrinos, using all three neutrino flavors.
