Search for Neutrino Emission from the Galactic Plane with IceCube — •Christian Haack, Leif Rädel, René Reimann, Sebastian Schoenen, and Christopher Wiebusch for the IceCube collaboration — III. Physikalisches Institut B, RWTH Aachen

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory has observed a diffuse all-sky all-flavor astrophysical neutrino flux above 30TeV. This flux has also been confirmed using up-going muon neutrinos above 200TeV from the Northern Hemisphere. In addition to searches for point sources, IceCube is able to probe models for diffuse neutrino emission from the galactic plane. In the galactic plane neutrinos are produced by the interaction of cosmic rays with the interstellar medium. The resulting neutrino energy spectrum is given by the cosmic ray propagation model and the properties of cosmic ray accelerators. In this talk, we will present results of a likelihood-based search for neutrino emission from the galactic plane, using six years of IceCube up-going muon neutrino data.
