Reina Maruyama – Supernova DAQ and Simulation tools, dark matter search, coincidence with DM-Ice
Matthew Kauer (paid by UW-Madison & Yale until July 2015, UW-Madison after) – Run coordinator, detector monitoring, low-energy reconstruction
Antonia Hubbard – Development of coincidence searches between IceCube and DM-Ice, characterization of low energy events untriggered in IceCube
Thesis/analysis topics: Backgrounds for DM-Ice: Coincidence Events Between IceCube and DM-Ice
Overall summary of M&O responsibilities and analysis topics
The PI at Yale, Reina Maruyama has graduated Benedikt Riedel from UW-Madison who worked on the supernova simulations and daq in Nov. 2014. The postdoc, Matt Kauer, is working 50% as the run coordinator (paid for by UW-Madison) and 50% on DM-Ice (from Yale) until July 2015. He is working with Antonia Hubbard on using DM-Ice/IceCube coincident events to verify and improve IceCube reconstruction. After July, he will be 100% UW-Madison. Antonia Hubbard (NSF Graduate Fellow, now paid for from Yale) is looking at coincidence events between DM-Ice and IceCube. These coincident events offer opportunities for improving reconstruction, especially for low energy events, as well as threshold studies. The PI plans to continue her work in supernova detection and explore synergies between IceCube and DM-Ice with Yale students and postdocs. Funding to support this work will be sought from NSF and other sources.
