Description
The discovery of high-energy cosmic neutrinos opened a new window of astroparticle physics. Revealing the sources is also relevant for solving the long-standing puzzle about the origin of cosmic rays. I will discuss theoretical implications of the latest results on high-energy neutrino observations, including associations of high-energy neutrinos with galaxies hosting supermassive black holes, active galactic nuclei and tidal disruption events, and demonstrate the power of multi-messenger approaches. I will highlight the importance of the current and future neutrino and gamma-ray telescopes to probe non-thermal phenomena in the vicinity of supermassive black holes.
