| Summary: | The high energy neutrino telescope IceCube is currently under construction in the deep ice of the South Pole glacier. With its 1km3 instrumented volume, it is designed to ensure the detection of extraterrestrial neutrino in the TeV-PeV energy range. Its Predecessor AMANDA, taking data since 1997, has provided along with many useful technical informations increasingly precise limits on a variety of potential astrophysical neutrino sources. After a brief description of these detectors we will focus on the indirect search of Dark Matter performed with the AMANDA telescope. SCOPUS: cp.p info:eu-repo/semantics/published |
