Explore the fascinating world of neutrinos, active galactic nuclei (AGNs), and gamma-rays in this comprehensive lecture from the Latin-American School on CTA Science. Delve into the anatomy of relativistic astrophysical sources and discover how astroparticle physics connects the puzzle pieces. Learn about neutrinos as probes of deeper horizons and denser environments, and understand their role in the multi-messenger context. Examine the principles of km³ detectors and the future global network of neutrino observatories. Investigate high-energy astrophysical neutrinos, including PeV neutrinos and their connection to Fermi Blazars. Analyze neutrino point sources, time-dependent searches, and high-energy neutrino counterparts, with a focus on the IceCube 170922A-TXS 0506+056 event. Explore the energetics of spectral energy distributions and the multi-messenger view of NGC 1068. Discover how the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) can contribute to neutrino studies and gain insights into the most promising results in blazar-neutrino cross-matching using virtual observatory data tools.
