We present a search for coincidence between IceCube TeV neutrinos and fast radio bursts (FRBs). During the search period from 2010 May 31 to 2016 May 12, a total of 29 FRBs with 13 unique locations have been detected in the whole sky. An unbinned maximum likelihood method was used to search for spatial and temporal coincidence between neutrinos and FRBs in expanding time windows, in both the northern and southern hemispheres. No significant correlation was found in six years of IceCube data. Therefore, we set upper limits on neutrino fluence emitted by FRBs as a function of time window …

Structure of Matter
In the hot early universe, prior to the epoch of nucleosynthesis, even the most primitive nuclear material—i.e., protons and neutrons—could not have existed. Earlier than 10–5 s or so after t = 0 , the universe would have been a hot soup consisting of the most elementary of particles—photons, electrons, positrons, neutrinos, quarks, and gluons. We now turn to the,” “Standard Model of Particle Physics,” our current understanding of these elementary building blocks and their interactions. The Standard Model of Particle Physics (SMPP), developed in fits and starts over the past 50 years, is a quantitatively predictive theory of subatomic …
