The Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network (AMON) will link the world’s leading high-energy neutrino, cosmic-ray, gamma-ray and gravitational wave observatories by performing real-time coincidence searches for multimessenger sources from observatories’ subthreshold data streams. The resulting coincidences will be distributed to interested parties in the form of electronic alerts for...

The Pierre Auger Observatory is the world’s largest cosmic-ray detector, sensitive to cosmic rays with energy exceeding $\sim 10^{17}$ eV. In addition to charged cosmic rays that form the bulk of the cosmic-ray flux at ultra-high energies, Auger is sensitive to ultra-high energy neutral messengers (photons, neutrinos, and neutrons). The later are particularly exciting as they are expected to...

The IceCube high-energy neutrino observatory has reported a 6.5$\sigma$ discovery of the first high-energy astrophysical neutrino candidates. However, the nature of the sources responsible for these neutrinos -- potentially also the sources of the highest-energy cosmic rays -- is still unknown and no high-confidence counterparts to any of the neutrino events have been yet identified. If the...
