Searching for neutrino point-sources in the northern hemisphere with IceCube: recent results and outlook — •Elena Manao, Chiara Bellenghi, Martin Ha Minh, Tomas Kontrimas, and Martin Wolf for the IceCube collaboration — Technische Universität München

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a one cubic kilometer neutrino telescope deployed deep in the Antarctic ice at the South Pole. One of its main goals is to identify sources of the diffuse astrophysical neutrino flux, discovered by IceCube in 2013. In this talk we present the results of the search for neutrino point-sources in the northern hemisphere, which found evidence of astrophysical neutrino emission from the active galaxy NGC 1068 with a global significance of 4.2σ, and the prospects of an extension of this analysis with several additional years of data.
