Faculty:

Carsten Rott   Institutional lead, Outreach, Publication committee member.

  Lead for the IceCube upgrade effort on 1.5.2.3 Camera and Light

  Detection


Scientists and Post Docs:

Christoph Toennis -   Ice-property studies with the SPICE Core Camera system. Anisotropy Measurement with Spice hole camera

  Design and test of mechanical camera holding structures for the IceCube Upgrade. Design and testing of the illumination board for the IceCube Upgrade camera system. Camera and illumination board testing and characterization. Mass testing of cameras and illumination boards before shipment to integration sites.

  BSM Neutrino Flux Module - Neutrino spectra from secluded dark matter

  Analysis topics: Search for secluded dark matter from the Sun.


Ph.D. Students:

Minjin Jeong -   Detector monitoring, maintenance of the FullSkyStarting Filter (FSS). BSM Neutrino Flux Module - Neutrino spectra from dark matter decay

  Thesis topic: Search for Dark Matter from Galaxy Clusters

Woosik Kang - Monitoring, Hole-ice and ice-property studies. Camera simulations.

  Simulation for the IceCube Upgrade camera system for calibration.  

  Development of calibration measurements analyses and sensitivity.  

  Camera and illumination board acceptance testing before shipment to  

  integration sites.

  Thesis topic: TBD


Diploma/Master Students:

Gerrit Rollinghoff - IceCube upgrade camera characterization measurements. Development

  of analysis procedures and tests for Camera FAT test at the integrations   sites

  MS Thesis: Solar Atm. Neutrinos Search during solar minimum

 


Description of planned analysis:

The SKKU group will focus on analyses involving data from DeepCore and physics feasibility studies for future dark matter and neutrino oscillation spectrometry analyses. The PhD student thesis topics are Solar dark matter and solar atmospheric neutrino searches using energy spectral information, and searches for high mass dark matter decays.

 


Description of Service work

The SKKU group will maintain and develop filters related to DeepCore and dark matter analyses. We will investigate hole ice properties with the goal to advance our understanding of individual DOMs and their local ice environment in studies using down-going muons and flasher data.

 


IceCube Upgrade activities

    Development and testing the IceCube Upgrade camera system. Design of the

    illumination system for the camera system. Calibration procedures for the  

    IceCube upgrade with cameras system.
