Description
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory has recently reported strong evidence for neutrino emission from the Galactic plane. The signal is consistent with model predictions of diffuse emission from cosmic ray propagation in the interstellar medium. However, due to IceCube's limited potential of identifying individual neutrino sources, it is also feasible that unresolved Galactic sources could contribute to the signal. I will discuss the contribution of this quasi-diffuse emission and examine whether this hypothesis can be tested by the upcoming KM3NeT detector or the planned future facility IceCube-Gen2.
