| contents | We implement a search for spatial coincidence between high energy neutrinos detected by the IceCube neutrino detector (using the publicly available 10-year muon track data) and 37 magnetars, including six extragalactic sources. We use the unbinned maximum likelihood method for our analysis. We do not find any such spatial association between any of the known magnetars and IceCube-detected neutrinos. Therefore, we conclude that none of the known galactic or extragalactic magnetars contribute to the diffuse neutrino flux observed in IceCube. A stacked analysis also does not show a statistically significant excess. |
