Reconstruction of low-energy neutrinos using convolutional neural networks
When cosmic rays crash into the Earth’s atmosphere, air showers containing atmospheric muons and neutrinos are produced. The atmospheric neutrinos are then detected by DeepCore, a denser array of sensors in the bottom center of the IceCube detector at the South Pole. Compared to the main IceCube detector, DeepCore is [...]
