Description
We use a two point correlation analysis to look for inhomogeneities in the arrival directions of
the high energy muon neutrino candidates detected by the ANTARES neutrino telescope. This
approach is complementary to a point source likelihood-based search, which is mainly sensitive
to one bright point like source and not to collective effects. We present the results of a search
based on this two-point correlation method performed on ANTARES 2007-2012 data, providing
constraints on models of a population of point sources too faint to be detected by the likelihood-
based method.
