| Description | HE Seminar Speaker: Greg Sullivan, University of Maryland Title: Results from The IceCube Neutrino Detector and Potential Physics from Future Upgrades Host: Svoboda Room: 285 Abstract: The IceCube neutrino detector, deployed in the deep clear ice at the Antarctic South Pole, completed construction in December 2010 with operations of the full instrument commencing in 2011. IceCube represents the first kilometer-cubed class neutrino telescope and is the first such instrument to reach sensitivities of astrophysical interest. I report on the current measurements from IceCube that search for high energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin, both a diffuse flux and point source fluxes. I will also report on the low-energy capability of the current IceCube detector with the observation of neutrino oscillations and speculate on the potential for making further measurements in the neutrino oscillation sector with future upgrades. |
