摘要
自高能天体物理中微子流被发现以来，对其起源的搜寻主要集中在 TeV–PeV 能段。与亚 TeV 搜寻相比，高能搜寻受益于中微子截面的增大、中微子方向角分辨率的改善，以及大气中微子和缪子本底的降低。然而，对高能量的关注并不排除 IceCube 仍具灵敏度的亚 TeV 中微子发射的存在。本文呈现 IceCube 针对低能中微子瞬态发射的首次全味搜寻，利用 IceCube-DeepCore 探测器三年数据，聚焦 5.6–100 GeV 能区。我们在数据中未发现瞬态中微子发射的证据，从而对天体物理瞬态源的体积率给出约束：对于遵循平均能量 100 GeV、辐射总能量 erg 的亚光球能谱的源，其体积率范围为 。
