Abstract:	The DOM digitizes the PMT waveform ensuring a dynamic range of 200 photoelectrons (p.e.) within the first 15 ns, a total of 2000 p.e. within 5 �s and a dead time < 1%. Assuming a generic diffuse E 2 ?� spectrum and optimizing the cuts for best sensitivity we obtain a 90% C.L. exclusion limit of 4.2 . at 90% C.L. for a model predicting a flux ? Optimizing the cuts for best sensitivity we obtain a 90% C.L. exclusion limit of 2.4 . Figure 4 also shows (dash-dotted) the prediction from the GRB model by [12]. Assuming independently available spatial and temporal information, IceCube expects after 1 year of data taking to achieve a sensitivity at the level of 20% of the flux predicted by this ...
