Interpretation of results on high-energetic cosmic neutrinos — •Walter Winter — DESY, Zeuthen, Germany

The discovery of high-energetic cosmic neutrinos is one of the recent major breakthroughs in science. We discuss the concept of the neutrino production, and interpret recent results taking into account the information from other messengers (gamma-rays, cosmic rays). For example, one question is if these neutrinos come from the most powerful accelerators in the universe, i.e., the ones which can accelerate cosmic rays to the highest observed energies. We also discuss future perspectives for neutrino astronomy.
