Open AccessObservation of seasonal variations of the flux of high-energy atmospheric neutrinos with IceCube
Atmospheric muon neutrinos are produced by meson decays in cosmic-ray-induced air showers. The flux depends on meteorological quantities such as the air temperature, which affects the density of air. Competiti...

Open AccessDetection of astrophysical tau neutrino candidates in IceCube
High-energy tau neutrinos are rarely produced in atmospheric cosmic-ray showers or at cosmic particle accelerators, but are expected to emerge during neutrino propagation over cosmic distances due to flavor mi...

Open AccessLow energy event reconstruction in IceCube DeepCore
The reconstruction of event-level information, such as the direction or energy of a neutrino interacting in IceCube DeepCore, is a crucial ingredient to many physics analyses. Algorithms to extract this high l...

Flat affine manifolds and their transformations
We give a characterization of flat affine connections on manifolds by means of a natural affine representation of the universal covering of the Lie group of diffeomorphisms preserving the connection. From the ...

Correction to: Fungal diversity and metabolomic profiles in GM and isogenic non-GM maize cultivars from Brazil
The original version of this paper was published with an error. The Corresponding author noticed that the first authors' initial is missing: this should be “A.M. Gasperini” instead of “M. Gasperini”. The origi...
