Search for cross-correlations of cosmic neutrinos and ultra-high-energy cosmic rays — •Lisa Schumacher, Christian Haack, Leif Rädel, René Reimann, Sebastian Schoenen, and Christopher Wiebusch for the IceCube collaboration — III. Physikalisches Institut B, RWTH Aachen

Cosmic rays have been discovered a century ago, however, their sources remain unidentified. It is believed that the same environments that accelerate cosmic rays also produce neutrinos by hadronic interactions. Recently, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory has discovered a flux of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos, and a joint analysis with the Pierre-Auger Observatory and the Telescope Array found hints for a possible directional correlation of neutrino events and cosmic-ray events. First studies for a follow-up analysis including additional data are presented.
