High-Energy Neutrinos from Blazar Flares and Implications of TXS 0506+056

Motivated by the observation of a > 290 TeV muon neutrino by IceCube, coincident with a ~6 month-long γ-ray flare of the blazar TXS 0506+056, and an archival search which revealed 13 ± 5 further, lower-energy neutrinos in the direction of the source in 2014-2015 we discuss the likely contribution...
