Neutrino emission from the direction of the blazar TXS 0506+056 prior to the IceCube-170922A alert

A high-energy neutrino event detected by IceCube on 22 September 2017 was coincident in direction and time with a gamma-ray flare from the blazar TXS 0506+056. Prompted by this association, we investigated 9.5 years of IceCube neutrino observations to search for excess emission at the position of th...
