We discuss implications that can be obtained by searches for neutrinos from the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 221009A. We derive constraints on GRB model parameters such as the cosmic-ray loading factor and dissipation radius, taking into account both neutrino spectra and effective areas. The results are strong enough to constrain proton acceleration near the photosphere, and we find that the single burst limits are comparable to those from stacking analysis. Quasi-thermal neutrinos from subphotospheres and ultra-high-energy neutrinos from external shocks are not yet constrained. We show that GeV–TeV neutrinos originating from neutron collisions are detectable, and urge dedicated analysis on these neutrinos with DeepCore and IceCube as well as ORCA and KM3NeT.

High-Energy and Ultra-High-Energy Neutrinos

Astrophysical neutrinos are excellent probes of astroparticle physics and high-energy physics. With energies far beyond solar, supernovae, atmospheric, and accelerator neutrinos, high-energy and ultrahigh-energy neutrinos probe fundamental physics from the TeV scale to the EeV scale and beyond. They are sensitive to physics both within and beyond the Standard Model through their production mechanisms and in their propagation over cosmological distances. They carry unique information about their extreme non-thermal sources by giving insight into regions that are opaque to electromagnetic radiation. This white paper describes the opportunities astrophysical neutrino observations offer for astrophysics and high-energy physics, today and in coming years.Fully opening the HE and UHE neutrino windows requires a multi-pronged approach that explores a broad range of proposed experimental techniques. With upcoming neutrino telescopes, the goal is to improve the sensitivity ten-fold in the HE range and hundred-fold in the UHE range. In the HE range, we are moving into the high-statistics era, where subtle features may be resolved and multiple sources may be discovered. In the UHE range, neutrino flux predictions and physics tests are well-motivated, but we will likely need new techniques to enable discoveries. The ongoing efforts to develop new instruments will improve sensitivity, increase statistics, and expand the energy range. A broad range of experimental approaches, with complementary capabilities, must be developed and tested in the coming decades. Because it is not clear which techniques will prevail, we advocate for a broad portfolio of experiments in the HE and UHE neutrino sector. Owing to their potential, HE and UHE neutrinos should be at the forefront of the high-energy physics program, as they push the boundaries for the neutrino, cosmic, energy, theory, and instrumentation frontiers. 4 Experimental landscape 32 4.1 Overview 32 4.2 High-energy range 35 4.3 Ultra-High Energy Range (> 100-PeV) 45

“…Optical Cherenkov neutrino telescopes, such as the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, typically have optimal sensitivities TeV, which is significantly higher than one could expect from even the most optimistic models for cosmic-ray acceleration in novae. Some previous searches for sub-TeV neutrino sources have been performed by Super-Kamiokande (Thrane et al 2009;Abe et al 2018) as well as by IceCube (Aartsen et al 2016;Abbasi et al 2022a), but these analyses have targeted other classes of astrophysical transients.…”

Search for sub-TeV Neutrino Emission from Novae with IceCube-DeepCore

The understanding of novae, the thermonuclear eruptions on the surfaces of white dwarf stars in binaries, has recently undergone a major paradigm shift. Though the bolometric luminosity of novae was long thought to arise directly from photons supplied by the thermonuclear runaway, recent gigaelectronvolt (GeV) gamma-ray observations have supported the notion that a significant portion of the luminosity could come from radiative shocks. More recently, observations of novae have lent evidence that these shocks are acceleration sites for hadrons for at least some types of novae. In this scenario, a flux of neutrinos may accompany the observed gamma rays. As the gamma rays from most novae have only been observed up to a few GeV, novae have previously not been considered as targets for neutrino telescopes, which are most sensitive at and above teraelectronvolt (TeV) energies. Here, we present the first search for neutrinos from novae with energies between a few GeV and 10 TeV using IceCube-DeepCore, a densely instrumented region of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory with a reduced energy threshold. We search both for a correlation between gamma-ray and neutrino emission as well as between optical and neutrino emission from novae. We find no evidence for neutrino emission from the novae considered in this analysis and set upper limits for all gamma-ray detected novae.
