High-energy astrophysical neutrinos detected by IceCube originate from:

  1. Blazars
  2. Supernova remnants
  3. Gamma-ray bursts
  4. All of these

Answer: All of these

Neutrinos travel unimpeded from cosmic accelerators, pointing to sources of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays. IceCube's detection of TXS 0506+056 blazar (2018) marked birth of neutrino astronomy. INO will contribute to multi-messenger studies. [[IUCAA Reports]]
