Thus, neutrinos are a unique messenger offering the opportunity to test the products of Galactic cosmic-ray interactions up to energies of hundreds of TeV. Here we present a search for this production using ten years of Astronomy with a Neutrino Telescope and Abyss environmental RESearch (ANTARES) track and shower data, as well as seven years of IceCube track data. The data are combined into a joint likelihood test for neutrino emission according to the KRA(gamma) model assuming a 5 PeV per nucleon Galactic cosmic-ray cutoff. No significant excess is found. As a consequence, the limits presented in this Letter start constraining the model parameter space for Galactic cosmic-ray production and transport.", optnote="WOS:000450844500004", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=3807), last updated on Mon, 10 Jun 2019 10:32:43 +0000", issn="2041-8205", doi="10.3847/2041-8213/aaeecf", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1808.03531", opturl="https://doi.org/10.3847/2041-8213/aaeecf", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1808.03531", language="English" }
