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...

Open AccessVelocity independent constraints on spin-dependent DM-nucleon interactions from IceCube and PICO
Adopting the Standard Halo Model (SHM) of an isotropic Maxwellian velocity distribution for dark matter (DM) particles in the Galaxy, the most stringent current constraints on their spin-dependent scattering c...

Open AccessDevelopment of an analysis to probe the neutrino mass ordering with atmospheric neutrinos using three years of IceCube DeepCore data
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 oscillation pattern of atmospheri...
