Recent Results of Point Source Searches with the IceCube Neutrino Telescope Erik Strahler

Abstract. IceCube is a km 3 scale neutrino detector being constructed deep in the Antarctic ice. When complete, IceCube will consist of 4800 optical modules deployed on 80 strings between 1450 and 2450 m of depth. During the 2007-2008 data taking season, 22 strings were operational. This configurati...
