Search for Nonstandard Neutrino Interactions with IceCube DeepCore

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, M. Ackermann +317

As atmospheric neutrinos propagate through the Earth, vacuum-like oscillations are modified by Standard-Model neutral- and charged-current interactions with electrons. Theories bey…

An All-Sky Search for Three Flavors of Neutrinos from Gamma-Ray Bursts with the IceCube Neutrino Observatory

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham +314

We present the results and methodology of a search for neutrinos produced in the decay of charged pions created in interactions between protons and gamma-rays during the prompt emi…

Lowering IceCube's Energy Threshold for Point Source Searches in the Southern Sky

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham +317

Observation of a point source of astrophysical neutrinos would be a "smoking gun" signature of a cosmic-ray accelerator. While IceCube has recently discovered a diffuse flux of ast…

Search for Transient Astrophysical Neutrino Emission with IceCube-DeepCore

M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham, M. Ackermann +309

We present the results of a search for astrophysical sources of brief transient neutrino emission using IceCube and DeepCore data acquired between May 15th 2012 and April 30th 2013…

Characterization of the Atmospheric Muon Flux in IceCube

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham +312

Muons produced in atmospheric cosmic ray showers account for the by far dominant part of the event yield in large-volume underground particle detectors. The IceCube detector, with…

First search for dark matter annihilations in the Earth with the IceCube Detector

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, K. Abraham +312

We present the results of the first IceCube search for dark matter annihilation in the center of the Earth. Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), candidates for dark matter…
