Ali Kheirandish receives 2025 IUPAP Early Career Scientist Prize
By Alisa King-Klemperer | | Awards |
IceCube collaborator Ali Kheirandish received a 2025 International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) Early Career Scientist Prize. Kheirandish accepted the award on July 15 during the opening ceremony of the 39th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC) held in Geneva, Switzerland. He was recognized for “his theoretical insights in…
IceCube’s first hunt for neutrino sources using two types of signals
By Alisa King-Klemperer | | Research |
The origins of cosmic rays—and the astrophysical sources responsible for producing and accelerating them—remain an open question in science. However, high-energy neutrinos, nearly massless subatomic particles, may hold the key to resolving this long-standing mystery. At the South Pole, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory occupies a cubic kilometer of ice in…
Week 27 at the Pole
By Jean DeMerit | | Life at the Pole |
Last week was mostly quiet again at the South Pole. The snow drifts continue to grow, as clearly seen in front of the IceCube Lab, above. From farther away, we see the snowed-in IceCube Upgrade hose reel and storage containers, under a bright moon (not sun!) through overcast skies. The…
