Machine learning method improves reconstruction and classification of low-energy IceCube events
Machine learning (ML) has proven to be an invaluable tool for data analysis, including the field of particle physics. Now, ML techniques are being employed to analyze data collected by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, a cubic-kilometer array of optical sensors buried in Antarctic ice that detect neutrinos, ghostly subatomic particles [...]

Week 46 at the Pole
Finally, the annual changing of the guard for IceCube winterovers took place last week at the Pole. Newcomers Hrvoje Dujmovic and Marc Jacquart arrived in time to get in a little training with outgoing winterovers Celas Marie-Sainte and Moreno Baricevic—all four in the photo above. Hrvoje and Marc, who will [...]
