Reflectance of Silicon Photomultipliers at Vacuum Ultraviolet Wavelengths

P. Lv, G. F. Cao, L. J. Wen +148

Characterization of the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) reflectance of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) is important for large-scale SiPM-based photodetector systems. We report the angula…

Development of an analysis to probe the neutrino mass ordering with atmospheric neutrinos using three years of IceCube DeepCore data

M. G. Aartsen, M. Ackermann, J. Adams +331

The Neutrino Mass Ordering (NMO) remains one of the outstanding questions in the field of neutrino physics. One strategy to measure the NMO is to observe matter effects in the osci…

Neutrinos below 100 TeV from the southern sky employing refined veto techniques to IceCube data

IceCube Collaboration, M. G. Aartsen, M. Ackermann +332

Many Galactic sources of gamma rays, such as supernova remnants, are expected to produce neutrinos with a typical energy cutoff well below 100 TeV. For the IceCube Neutrino Observa…
