Description
In this paper, we attempt to explain the TeV-PeV neutrinos observed by IceCube by assuming that they originate from active galactic nuclei. The results are obtained in the model where the accretion disk emits in the UV-optical range inside the electron plasma cloud. Using a Monte-Carlo approach to simulate photopion interactions in the jets and then taking into account the cosmological evolution, we generalize the results of previous researchers within this approach by taking into account the coronal emission.
