IceCube Neutrino Emission Data for X-ray Bright AGN

This data release accompanies a study providing evidence for neutrino emission from X-ray bright active galactic nuclei. It contains data products and scripts to reproduce five figures and machine-readable tables from the publication, including flux upper limits for Cygnus A. The data was produced by the IceCube Collaboration.

Use Cases

• Reproduce the five main figures from the publication using the supplied plotting scripts and data files.
• Analyze the 90% C.L. flux upper limits and 68% C.L. sensitive energy range provided for Cygnus A.
• Utilize the machine-readable versions of Tables 2 and 3 for further statistical analysis of the reported 3.3-sigma binomial excess.

Strengths

• Data supports reproduction of five figures from a peer-reviewed publication.
• Includes specific flux upper limits and sensitive energy ranges for the AGN Cygnus A.
• Provided by the authoritative IceCube Collaboration in neutrino astronomy.

Limitations

• The dataset is focused on reproducibility for a specific publication, limiting general exploratory analysis.
• Sample data and column definitions are unavailable, obscuring the raw data structure.
• The scope is confined to the AGN analyzed in the accompanying study.
