Gravitational waves are radiative solutions of space-time dynamics predicted by Einstein's theory of General Relativity. A world-wide array of large-scale and highly-sensitive interferometric detectors constantly scrutinizes the geometry of the local space-time with the hope to detect deviations that would sign an impinging gravitational wave from a remote astrophysical source. Finding the...

We review the present status of the search for ultra-high energy cosmic neutrinos with the conventional methods. The IceCube neutrino observatory has currently realised the best sensitivity on detection of neutrinos in the energy range around EeV, by the standard neutrino detection technique measuring ultra-violet Cherenkov light emissions. The most updated results from the data obtained by...

The existence of ultra-high energy (UHE) cosmic-rays (CRs) is a strong motivation for neutrino astronomy at very high energies; it seems unavoidable that UHE CRs undergo hadronic interactions with radiation backgrounds or matter prior to their arrival at Earth. Mesons produced in these interactions quickly decay and release a flux of high-energy neutrinos and gamma-rays. Neutrino observatories...
