Searching for corelations between HAWC gamma ray observations and IceCube high energy neutrino events.

ORAL

Abstract

We have investigated the possibility that there is a correlation between the highest energy neutrinos observed by IceCube and the highest energy photons observed by HAWC. We have used the HAWC publicly-available point source catalog to compare the summed test statistic for gamma ray point sources in the regions of sky from regions of sky containing IceCube PeV neutrinos to the summed test statistic for the same number of random sky regions.
