中微子天文学与IceCube天文台和天体粒子物理学的意义
Neutrino Astronomy with the IceCube Observatory and Implications for Astroparticle Physics
摘要：
冰立方天文台是目前正在南极建造的一座千米^3中微子望远镜。它将包括4800个光学传感器，部署在冰面下1450米至2450米的80个垂直字符串上。目前，IceCube正在使用40个字符串（即2400个光学传感器）来记录数据。冰立方天文台将收集前所未有数量的高能中微子，这将使我们能够继续研究大气中微子通量，并寻找中微子的地外来源，无论是点状的还是未解决的。冰立方的结果将对中微子天体物理学产生重要影响，特别是如果与其他宇宙信使（如伽马射线或超高能宇宙射线）的观测相结合。它们还可能揭示出超高能宇宙射线起源的线索。在这里，我们报告的结果，从AMANDA和最新的结果，从前22串冰立方。
英文摘要：
The IceCube Observatory is a km^3 neutrino telescope currently under construction at the geographic South Pole. It will comprise 4800 optical sensors deployed on 80 vertical strings between 1450 and 2450 meters under the ice surface. Currently IceCube is operational and recording data with 40 strings (i.e. 2400 optical sensors). The IceCube Observatory will collect an unprecedented number of high energy neutrinos that will allow us to pursue studies of the atmospheric neutrino flux, and to search for extraterrestrial sources of neutrinos, whether point-like or unresolved. IceCube results will have an important impact on neutrino astrophysics, especially if combined with observations done with other cosmic messengers, such as gamma rays or ultra high energy cosmic rays. They may also reveal clues on the origin of cosmic rays at ultra high energies. Here we report results from AMANDA and the most recent results from the first 22 strings of IceCube.
