SPORE: An Event-Level Sampling Pipeline for Multi-Telescope Neutrino Astronomy
Jeffrey Lazar, Perrine Wilmet, Gwenhaël de Wasseige
We present an open-source Python package for simulating neutrino events from astrophysical point and extended sources using tabulated instrument response functions (IRFs). The pack…
The LED calibration systems for the mDOM and D-Egg sensor modules of the IceCube Upgrade
R. Abbasi, M. Ackermann, J. Adams +432
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory, instrumenting about 1 km of deep, glacial ice at the geographic South Pole, is due to be enhanced with the IceCube Upgrade. The IceCube Upgrad…
Acceptance Tests of more than 10 000 Photomultiplier Tubes for the multi-PMT Digital Optical Modules of the IceCube Upgrade
R. Abbasi, M. Ackermann, J. Adams +420
More than 10,000 photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) with a diameter of 80 mm will be installed in multi-PMT Digital Optical Modules (mDOMs) of the IceCube Upgrade. These have been tested…
Status and plans for the instrumentation of the IceCube Surface Array Enhancement
S. Shefali, Frank G. Schroeder
The surface array of IceCube, IceTop, operates primarily as a cosmic-ray detector, as well as a veto for astrophysical neutrino searches for the IceCube in-ice instrumentation. How…
tilepy: rapid tiling strategies in mid/small FoV observatories
Fabian Schüssler, Halim Ashkar, Mathieu de Bony de Lavergne +1
The challenges inherent to time-domain multi-messenger astronomy require strategic actions so that adapted, optimized follow-up observations are performed efficiently. In particula…
Identification of time-correlated neutrino clusters in populations of astrophysical transient sources
Mathieu Lamoureux, Gwenhaël de Wasseige
