Tracking IceCube Neutrino Alerts with the Deep-Water BAIKAL-GVD Telescope

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The main goal of the Baikal-GVD deep-sea neutrino telescope is to detect high-energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin by reconstructing muon tracks or showers of particles generated in interactions of neutrino with water. Since 2020, Baikal-GVD has been monitoring IceCube telescope alerts about detecting neutrinos with energies of more than 100 TeV. This work presents results from searching for matches between Baikal-GVD events and IceCube neutrino alerts from September 2020 to April 2022.
