Cover art for Neutrino Astronomy textbook written by Albrecht Karle and Thomas Gaisser. Minimalist imagery depicts neutrino phenomena and technology used by IceCube Project to detect neutrino subatomic particle activity at the Antarctic IceCube Neutrino Observatory, which is an ideal location to observe neutrinos deep within the nearly pure polar ice.
Textbook motivated by the recent discovery of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos by IceCube. The aim of the book is to bring together chapters on the status of current and future neutrino observatories with chapters on the implications and possible interpretations of the present observations and their upper limits. Each chapter is a mini-review of one aspect of the subject by leading experts. Taken together, the chapters constitute an up-to-date review of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos and their potential sources.
