Radio-to-gamma-ray synchrotron and neutrino emission from proton-proton interactions in active galactic nuclei (2012.04425v1)
Published 8 Dec 2020 in astro-ph.HE
Abstract: We explore possible physical origin of correlation between radio wave and very-high-energy neutrino emission in active galactic nuclei (AGN), suggested by recently reported evidence for correlation between neutrino arrival directions and positions of brightest radio-loud AGN. We show that such correlation is expected if both synchrotron emitting electrons and neutrinos originate from decays of charged pions produced in proton-proton interactions in parsec-scale relativistic jet propagating through circum-nuclear medium of the AGN.
