Introduction IceCube has performed several searches for point-like sources of neutrinos. The events contained in this release make up the sample used in IceCube’s 10-year time-integrated neutrino point source search [1]. Events in the sample are track-like neutrino candidates detected by IceCube between April 2008 and July 2008. The data contained in this release of […]

South Pole ice temperature
Introduction The temperature of South Pole ice has been measured with dedicated thermistors installed along some of the instrumentation cables in both the AMANDA and in the IceCube experiment. For details regarding the AMANDA measurements, please see PNAS June 11, 2002 99 (12) 7844-7847; https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.082238999. Similar instrumentation was installed along a few of the IceCube […]
IceCube Upgrade Neutrino Monte Carlo Simulation
Introduction The IceCube Upgrade is an upcoming extension to the IceCube neutrino observatory which will densely instrument a 2 Mton region in the deepest ice, within the existing DeepCore sub-array. This new sub-array will comprise 7 new strings featuring a total of nearly 700 multi-PMT optical modules (known as mDOMs and DEggs) at a vertical […]
All-sky point-source IceCube data: years 2012-2015
Introduction IceCube has performed a search for point-like sources of neutrinos using seven years of IceCube data, supplanting the previously available four year analysis. The new sample includes previously analyzed data from 2008-2012, but adds 2012-2015 data as well as contributions from track-like events starting inside of the detector, improving the sensitivity to sources in […]
Bayesian posterior for IceCube 7-year point-source search with neutrino-count statistics
Introduction The presence of a population of point sources in a dataset modifies the underlying neutrino-count statistics from the Poisson distribution. This deviation can be exactly quantified using the non-Poissonian template fitting technique, and in this work we present the first application of this approach to the IceCube high-energy neutrino dataset. Using this method, we […]
Three-year high-statistics neutrino oscillation samples
Introduction In 2013, IceCube reported its first measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameters. This was the first time that neutrino oscillations were measured with precision at energies above 10 GeV. A year later, the collaboration presented a second analysis with three years of data that improved the precision by a factor of ten. The IceCube […]
All-sky point-source IceCube data: years 2010-2012
Introduction IceCube has performed several all-sky searches for point-like sources of neutrinos that have been published elsewhere. This data release includes 3 years of track-like neutrino candidates detected by IceCube between June 2010 and May 2013. The selection includes through-going tracks, i.e. muon neutrino candidates that reach the detector from all directions, as well as […]
IceCube catalog of alert events up through IceCube-170922A
Introduction A high-energy neutrino event alert was issued by IceCube on 22 September 2017 and was found coincident in direction and time with a gamma-ray flare from the blazar TXS 0506+056. As part of the analysis of this multi-messenger signal, all previous neutrinos that issued alerts within the realtime alert system (DOI:10.1016/j.astropartphys.2017.05.002), or would have […]
IceCube data from 2008 to 2017 related to analysis of TXS 0506+056
Introduction A high-energy neutrino event detected by IceCube on 22 September 2017 was coincident in direction and time with a gamma-ray flare from the blazar TXS 0506+056. The analysis of this association was reported in Science (DOI:10.1126/science.aat1378). Prompted by this association, IceCube investigated 9.5 years of data recorded in the direction of this blazar to […]
Measurement of atmospheric neutrino oscillations with three years of data from the full sky
Introduction In 2013, IceCube reported its first measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameters. This was the first time that neutrino oscillations were measured with precision at energies above 10 GeV. A year later, the collaboration presented a second analysis with three years of data that improved the precision by a factor of ten. The IceCube […]
