High-energy neutrino and γ-ray emission are expected from the Galactic plane, produced by interactions between cosmic rays and the interstellar medium or radiation fields. Recent LHAASO observations have detected diffuse γ-rays from the Galactic plane and an ultrahigh-energy γ-ray bubble (Cygnus Bubble) up to PeV energies, suggesting the possibility of neutrino emission. Using 7 years of publicly available IceCube track data with the full detector, we conducted searches for neutrino signals correlated with LHAASO diffuse Galactic γ-ray emission and Cygnus Bubble using a template method.

In recent years, multiple lines of evidence have emerged supporting the idea that Be stars are mass gainers in interacting binaries. Together, these findings suggest a compelling scenario in which all Be stars are formed through binary interactions. Nevertheless, the broader implications of this scenario must be carefully examined within the context of massive binary evolution.
