Soft gamma rays from low accreting supermassive black holes and connection to energetic neutrinos

The origins of the soft gamma-ray and high-energy neutrino backgrounds remain unknown. Here, the authors show radiatively inefficient accretion flows of low-luminosity active galactic nuclei can produce the soft gamma ray and high energy neutrino backgrounds simultaneously.
