Design and Status of IceCube

IceCube is a kilometer-scale high energy neutrino detector that builds on the wealth of experience accumulated with its smaller predecessor, AMANDA. An international collaboration has begun construction of key components of the IceCube detector and deployment operations at the South Pole will begin...
