Measurement of sound speed vs. depth in South Pole ice for neutrino astronomy

The IceCube Collaboration

We have measured the speed of both pressure waves and shear waves as a function of depth between 80 and 500 m depth in South Pole ice with better than 1% precision. The measurement…

Detection of Atmospheric Muon Neutrinos with the IceCube 9-String Detector

The IceCube Collaboration, A. Achterberg

The IceCube neutrino detector is a cubic kilometer TeV to PeV neutrino detector under construction at the geographic South Pole. The dominant population of neutrinos detected in Ic…

Multi-year search for a diffuse flux of muon neutrinos with AMANDA-II

IceCube Collaboration, A. Achterberg

A search for TeV - PeV muon neutrinos from unresolved sources was performed on AMANDA-II data collected between 2000 and 2003 with an equivalent livetime of 807 days. This diffuse…

Five years of searches for point sources of astrophysical neutrinos with the AMANDA-II neutrino telescope

A. Achterberg

We report the results of a five-year survey of the northern sky to search for point sources of high energy neutrinos. The search was performed on the data collected with the AMANDA…

Limits on the high-energy gamma and neutrino fluxes from the SGR 1806-20 giant flare of December 27th, 2004 with the AMANDA-II detector

The IceCube Collaboration

On December 27th 2004, a giant gamma flare from the Soft Gamma-ray Repeater 1806-20 saturated many satellite gamma-ray detectors. This event was by more than two orders of magnitud…

First Year Performance of The IceCube Neutrino Telescope

The IceCube Collaboration

The first sensors of the IceCube neutrino observatory were deployed at the South Pole during the austral summer of 2004-05 and have been producing data since February 2005. One str…
