Description
The detection of high-energy neutrinos by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory has opened a new window into the study of astrophysical sources, in particular Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Both jetted and non-jetted AGN are prime candidates for these neutrinos. This talk will review recent evidence linking specific AGN to IceCube neutrino events. I will show how multi-wavelength observations can be used to pinpoint the regions from which these neutrinos might originate, often tracing them back to regions close to supermassive black holes. The identification of these regions raises new questions about the acceleration processes and the origin of the IceCube neutrinos. Future neutrino telescopes will be essential to test and confirm these initial associations, and to explore environments and mechanisms in our Universe that are otherwise inaccessible to electromagnetic radiation
