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 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...

Open AccessSearch for neutrinos from dark matter self-annihilations in the center of the Milky Way with 3 years of IceCube/DeepCore
We present a search for a neutrino signal from dark matter self-annihilations in the Milky Way using the IceCube Neutrino Observatory (IceCube). In 1005 days of data we found no significant excess of neutrinos...

Open AccessSearch for dark matter annihilation in the Galactic Center with IceCube-79
The Milky Way is expected to be embedded in a halo of dark matter particles, with the highest density in the central region, and decreasing density with the halo-centric radius. Dark matter might be indirectly...

Open AccessMultipole analysis of IceCube data to search for dark matter accumulated in the Galactic halo
Dark matter which is bound in the Galactic halo might self-annihilate and produce a flux of stable final state particles, e.g. high energy neutrinos. These neutrinos can be detected with IceCube, a cubic-kilom...
