We use the multi-messenger method to test various interpretations of the PeV neutrino events at Icecube. We find that a purely astrophysical interpretation with a single power-law flux is incompatible with the existing gamma ray constraints. However, a new physics interpretation in terms of a heavy dark matter decay to neutrinos and Standard Model Higgs is found to be still compatible,...
