The NuEM Multimessenger Channel with AMON

ORAL

Abstract

The Neutrino-Electromagnetic (NuEM) channel from the Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network(AMON), has been developed as a real-time alert system. The AMON server performs coincidence analyses using gamma-ray and neutrino data from different detectors.. AMON takes advantage of sub-threshold events, i.e. events that by themselves are not significant in the individual detectors. However, signal events can be recovered when looking at the datasets together. The main purpose of the NuEM channel is to search for neutrino sources. We will describe the analyses that make-up this channel and some od the recent results.
