Recent high-energy neutrino measurements with the IceCube neutrino observatory

Nahee Park

University of Wisconsin

IceCube is a cubic-kilometer scale telescope primarily designed to study high energy neutrinos. Located at the South Pole, IceCube was completed in 2010 with full deployment of a detector array of 86 strings composed of a total of 5160 optical modules. For more than a decade, IceCube has been continuously surveying the entire sky, revealing the first neutrino view of the Universe. The science coverage of IceCube is wide, including neutrino oscillation, diffuse astrophysical neutrino measurements, astrophysical neutrino source searches, and cosmic-ray measurements. In this talk, I will present the recent results from the IceCube observatory, focusing on the high energy neutrino measurements.
