🥇🚨Gold alert – IceCube observation of a high-energy neutrino candidate event at 2024/03/27 11:04:49 UTC. Find out more at gcn.nasa.gov/circulars/35983.

🔔📜 IceCube paper published in Nature Physics!

We tested for neutrino decoherence as a result of small fluctuations in spacetime caused by quantum gravity. We set the world's strongest constraints on neutrino-quantum gravity interactions.

Another successful collaboration meeting in the books! 🎉 🥂

A huge thank you to our host institution, Universität Münster, and to everyone who attended our spring collaboration meeting to discuss science and exchange ideas.

See you all in Madison, Wisconsin for the fall meeting!

📍Our winterovers were kept busy last week, with a couple of trips out to the IceCube Lab (ICL) for some detector maintenance and troubleshooting.

The Spring 2024 IceCube Collaboration Meeting has officially begun! For the first time, the meeting is being held in Münster, Germany at the Universität Münster. 🇩🇪

#PiDay It's time to celebrate our favorite constant! The IceCube Collaboration would like to wish everyone a Happy Pi Day!🥧

📍The South Pole winterovers got a special treat with a live interview with the director of 1982’s “The Thing”, John Carpenter, as part of the movie screening.

#IWD2024 Happy International Women’s Day! We recognize the women in IceCube who have made incredible contributions to the collaboration and the field!

🔔📜IceCube paper accepted by PRL!

We detected seven candidates for the elusive astrophysical tau neutrino, which represents the most significant detection of the highest energy tau neutrinos ever seen.
