Resumo: We analyze the possible origin of high-energy neutrinos coming from galactic sources. A model is proposed for neutrino hadroproduction in binary systems. Our results show that neutrino observatories like IceCube can establish whether TeV neutrinos and gamma rays emitted by microquasars are the decay products of pions. Such pions can be produced where the jet collides with the stellar wind of the companion star giving rise to hadronic interactions. We improve previous predictions by considering energy dependent pion multiplicities, particularly significant at high energies, and the most recent values for the parameters of the system. We also discuss the gamma-ray flux associated with neutrino emission.
