Extending the search for neutrino point sources with IceCube above the horizon
The IceCube Collaboration, R. Abbasi
Point source searches with the IceCube neutrino telescope have been restricted to one hemisphere, due to the exclusive selection of upward going events as a way of rejecting the at…
Kilometer-Scale Neutrino Detectors: First Light
Francis Halzen
This is a brief report on the status of neutrino "astronomy" at a time when the kilometer-scale neutrino detector IceCube is approaching completion. We revisit the rationale for co…
Neutrino emission from high-energy component gamma-ray bursts
J. K. Becker, F. Halzen, A. O'Murchadha +1
Gamma-ray bursts have the potential to produce the particle energies (up to eV) and the energy budget () to accommodate the spectrum of…
The Indirect Search for Dark Matter with IceCube
Francis Halzen, Dan Hooper
We revisit the prospects for IceCube and similar kilometer-scale telescopes to detect neutrinos produced by the annihilation of weakly interacting massive dark matter particles (WI…
Limits on a muon flux from Kaluza-Klein dark matter annihilations in the Sun from the IceCube 22-string detector
The IceCube collaboration, R. Abbasi
A search for muon neutrinos from Kaluza-Klein dark matter annihilations in the Sun has been performed with the 22-string configuration of the IceCube neutrino detector using data c…
IceCube: The Rationale for Kilometer-Scale Neutrino Detectors
Francis Halzen
At a time when IceCube is nearing completion, we revisit the rationale for constructing kilometer-scale neutrino detectors. We focus on the prospect that such observatories reveal…
