PROSPECTS FOR DARK MATTER DETECTION IN ICECUBE

Speakers

Primary authors

Abstract content

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is currently under construction at the South Pole, Antarctica, and 22 strings (of 80) have so far been installed. The observatory is surrounding the AMANDA neutrino telescope, which is running since 2000. The combination of the AMANDA telescope and the Icecube strings will improve the sensitivity to neutrinos from Dark Matter annihilation. This paper will discuss the prospects for indirect detection of Dark Matter in the coming years by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory.
