IceCube Neutrino Astronomy is considered. The tau neutrino flavor paucity and the asymmetry for the tracks suggest a dominant atmospheric charm noise. The correlated cascades and tracks asymmetry with relevant statistics enforce the charm noise dominance in the data. The charm signal may explain at once the absence of correlation for the tracks data with the galactic plane and with known brightest gamma sources.
Since 2013 IceCube cascade showers sudden overabundance have shown a fast flavor change above 30-60 TeV up to PeV energy. This flavor change from dominant muon tracks at TeVs to shower events at higher energies, has been indebted to a new injection o
f a neutrino astronomy. However the recent published 54 neutrino HESE, high energy starting events, as well as the 38 external muon tracks made by trough going muon formed around the IceCube, none of them are pointing to any expected X-gamma or radio sources: no one in connection to GRB, no toward active BL Lac, neither to AGN source in Fermi catalog. No clear correlation with nearby mass distribution (Local Group), nor to galactic plane. Moreover there have not been any record (among a dozen of 200 TeV energetic events) of the expected double bang due to the tau neutrino birth and decay. An amazing and surprising unfair distribution in flavor versus expected democratic one. Finally there is not a complete consistence of the internal HESE event spectra and the external crossing muon track ones. Moreover the apparent sudden astrophysical neutrino flux rise at 60 TeV might be probably also suddenly cut at a few PeV in order to hide the (unobserved , yet) Glashow resonance peak at 6.3 PeV. A more mondane prompt charmed atmospheric neutrino component may explain most of the IceCube puzzles. If this near future, 2017-2018, it does not shine tau neutrino signals somewhere (by tau airshowers in AUGER, TA, ASHRA or double bang in IceCube) there are a list of consequences to face. These missing correlations and in particular the tau signature absence force us to claim : No Tau? No neutrino Astronomy.
UHECR may be either nucleons or nuclei; in the latter case the Lightest Nuclei, as He, Li, Be, explains at best the absence of Virgo signals and the crowding of events around Cen-A bent by galactic magnetic fields. This model fit the observed nuclear
mass composition discovered in AUGER. However UHECR nucleons above GZK produce EeV neutrinos while Heavy Nuclei, as Fe UHECR do not produce much. UHECR He nuclei at few tens EeV suffer nuclear fragmentation (producing low energetic neutrino at tens PeVs) but it suffer anyway photo-pion GZK suppression (leading to EeV neutrinos) once above one-few 10^{20} eV. Both these cosmogenic UHE secondary neutrinos signals may influence usual predicted GZK Tau Neutrino Astronomy in significant and detectable way; the role of resonant antineutrino electron-electron leading to Tau air-shower may also rise.
The Sun albedo of cosmic rays at GeVs energy has been discovered recently by FERMI satellite. They are traces of atmospheric CR hitting solar atmosphere and reflecting skimming gamma photons. Even if relevant for astrophysics, as being trace of atmos
pheric solar Cosmic Ray noises they cannot offer any signal of neutrino astronomy. On the contrary the Moon, with no atmosphere, may become soon a novel filtering calorimeter and an amplifier of energetic muon astronomical neutrinos (at TeV up to hundred TeV energy); these lepton tracks leave an imprint in their beta decay while in flight to Earth. Their TeV electron air-shower are among the main signals. Also a more energetic, but more rare, PeV up to EeV tau lunar neutrino events may be escaping as a tau lepton from the Moon: PeVs secondaries may be shining on Earth atmosphere in lunar shadows in a surprising rich way. One or a few gamma air-shower event inside the Moon shadows may occur each year in near future CTA or LHAASO TeVs gamma array detector, assuming a non negligible astrophysical TeV up to hundred TeV neutrino component (respect to our terrestrial ruling atmospheric ones); these signals will open a new wonderful passepartout keyhole for neutrino been seen along the Moon. The lunar solid angle is small and the muon or tau expected rate is rare, but future largest tau radio array as GRAND one might well discover such neutrino imprint.
The Baikal Gigaton Volume Detector (Baikal-GVD) is a km$^3$-scale neutrino detector currently under construction in Lake Baikal, Russia. The detector consists of several thousand optical sensors arranged on vertical strings, with 36 sensors per strin
g. The strings are grouped into clusters of 8 strings each. Each cluster can operate as a stand-alone neutrino detector. The detector layout is optimized for the measurement of astrophysical neutrinos with energies of $sim$ 100 TeV and above. Events resulting from charged current interactions of muon (anti-)neutrinos will have a track-like topology in Baikal-GVD. A fast $chi^2$-based reconstruction algorithm has been developed to reconstruct such track-like events. The algorithm has been applied to data collected in 2019 from the first five operational clusters of Baikal-GVD, resulting in observations of both downgoing atmospheric muons and upgoing atmospheric neutrinos. This serves as an important milestone towards experimental validation of the Baikal-GVD design. This analysis is limited to single-cluster data, favoring nearly-vertical tracks.
Recent Standard Model predictions for the anomalous magnetic moments of the electron, muon and tau lepton are reviewed and compared to the latest experimental values.
