Description
The spectrum of cosmic rays includes the most energetic particles ever observed. The mechanism of their acceleration and their sources are, however, still mostly unknown. Observing astrophysical neutrinos can help solve this problem. Because neutrinos are produced in hadronic interactions and are neither absorbed nor deflected, they will point directly back to their source. This contribution will cover continued studies of the high-energy astrophysical neutrinos flux observed at the IceCube neutrino observatory, extending them from three to four years of data with a focus on energies above 60 TeV. The spectrum and spatial/temporal clustering of the observed neutrinos will be discussed.
