IceCube's In-Ice Radio Extension: Status and Results
In 2006-2010, several Radio Frequency (RF) detectors and calibration equipment were deployed as part of the IceCube array at depths between 5 to 1400 meters in preparation for a future large scale GZK neutrino detector. IceCube's deep holes and well-established data handling system provide a unique opportunity for deep-ice RF detection studies at the South-Pole. We will present verification and calibration results as well as a status-review of ongoing analyses such as ice-properties, RF noise and reconstruction algorithms.
