Description
High-energy (TeV-PeV) neutrinos are predicted to be produced by cosmic ray particles in gamma-ray bursts, so they are key probes of the dissipation mechanism and jet composition of GRBs. I will talk about recent progresses of the IceCube observations on GRB neutrinos and the theoretical implication. I will also talk about the ultra-high energy (EeV) neutrino emission produced by ultra-high energy cosmic rays interacting with cosmic background photons and its implication for studying the sources of ultra-high energy comsmic rays.
