Supermassive black holes at the hearts of active galaxies may be churning out a lot of the universe\u2019s high-energy neutrinos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two teams using data from IceCube, the world\u2019s premier neutrino observatory located in Antarctica, have independently identified a common type of these active galaxies<\/a>, called Seyfert galaxies, as likely neutrino producers<\/a>. These findings, reported in Physical Review Letters<\/em> and arXiv.org, bolster some astronomers\u2019 view that the cores of such active galaxies could churn out the majority of the cosmic neutrinos seen streaming across the universe.<\/p>\n\n\n
