Description
Astrophysical neutrinos are capable of delivering unprecedented information about the most cataclysmic events in the Universe. Since neutrinos only interact weakly with matter and are not deflected by galactic/intergalactic magnetic fields, they point back to their production source and carry information relating to the in situ physical conditions of some of nature's most extreme environments. We present two searches for time-correlated low-energy electron antineutrinos in the KamLAND 1kton liquid scintillator detector with astrophysical sources. The first search examines 2795 long and 465 short gamma-ray bursts, while the second search uses the full publicly available high-energy astrophysical neutrino dataset from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory.
