Description

The IceCube collaboration pioneered the detection of
order PeV neutrino events and the identification
of astrophysical sources of high-energy neutrinos. Furthermore,
astrophysical environment with large magnetic field is a
prerequisite for the acceleration of charged particles which source
high-energy neutrinos. While propagating through such magnetic field
environment, neutrinos experience spin precession induced by their
magnetic moments, which impacts their helicity and flavor
composition at Earth. In this talk, I will discuss the influence of
neutrino magnetic moment on both flavor composition of high-energy
neutrinos and Glashow resonance events at neutrino telescopes, such
as IceCube, by considering scenarios in which high-energy neutrinos
are produced in the vicinity of astrophysical objects with strong
magnetic field, such as magnetars.
