Procedures and descriptions for the IceCube good run list have been developed by C.Rott. We are maintaining the good run list and perform associated long-term data-quality and stability tasks. We provide an interface for easy accessibility of the run information in a digested format. Develop science analysis tools for correlated neutrino searches based upon electromagnetic parameters for each burst (M. Stamatikos).

Our analysis efforts are focused in several areas. The first is a search for neutrinos from Dark Matter self-annihilations in the Galactic halo. Second, using the gamma ray burst analysis tool, we plan to study correlated neutrino emission. Third, using the Ultra High Energy neutrino sample we will zenith angle distributions to study the Earth density profile and develop analyses methods for a neutrino-Nucleon interaction cross section measurement, which will be eventually performed with ARA.

We use the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) for data processing and to production of Monte Carlo event samples.
