Description
The recent 4.2$\sigma$ evidence of TeV neutrino emission from the
nearby active galaxy NGC 1068 observed by IceCube suggests that
AGN could make a sizable contribution to the diffuse high-energy
astrophysical neutrino flux. The absence of TeV gamma rays from
NGC 1068 indicates neutrino production in the innermost region of the
AGN. Disk-corona models predict a correlation between neutrinos and
keV X-rays in Seyfert galaxies, a subclass of AGN to which NGC 1068
belongs. In this talk, using 10 years of IceCube muon neutrino events,
we report the results of searches for neutrino emission from X-ray bright Seyfert galaxies.
