Description
The origin of high-energy neutrinos is fundamental to our understanding of the Universe. Immense effort has been put into identifying extragalactic sources of TeV-PeV neutrinos but still to no avail. Blazars has been proposed as one of the most promising candidates, however, the original association of a blazar with a high-energy neutrino has generated more questions than answers. I will discuss current efforts to test blazars as neutrino emitters across the electromagnetic spectrum using the largest sample of blazars compiled to date, as well as recent insights on the problem from multiwavelength polarimetry.
