An Absence of Neutrinos Associated with Cosmic Ray Acceleration in Gamma-Ray Bursts
- Abstract:
- Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) have been proposed as a leading candidate for acceleration of ultra high-energy cosmic rays, which would be accompanied by emission of TeV neutrinos produced in proton-photon interactions during acceleration in the GRB fireball. Two analyses using data from two years of the IceCube detector produced no evidence for this neutrino emission, placing strong constraints on models of neutrino and cosmic-ray production in these sources.

6 pages, 4 figures. Additional supplementary information (effective
areas) is freely available with the published version. Version 2 supersedes
the published version and fixes a small overestimation of the event rate from
the Guetta et al. model in the 2010-2011 part of the model-dependent
analysis, resulting in a new Fig. 1. Conclusions and all final results are
unchanged.
