Improvement in Fast Particle Track Reconstruction with Robust Statistics

M. G. Aartsen, R. Abbasi, Y. Abdou +277

The IceCube project has transformed one cubic kilometer of deep natural Antarctic ice into a Cherenkov detector. Muon neutrinos are detected and their direction inferred by mapping…

Measurement of South Pole ice transparency with the IceCube LED calibration system

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, R. Abbasi +272

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory, approximately 1 km^3 in size, is now complete with 86 strings deployed in the Antarctic ice. IceCube detects the Cherenkov radiation emitted by ch…

Calibration and Characterization of the IceCube Photomultiplier Tube

The IceCube Collaboration, R. Abbasi, Y. Abdou +256

Over 5,000 PMTs are being deployed at the South Pole to compose the IceCube neutrino observatory. Many are placed deep in the ice to detect Cherenkov light emitted by the products…
