Description
Summary:The AMANDA neutrino detector has been in operation at the South Pole for several years. A number of searches for extraterrestrial sources of high energy neutrinos have been performed. A selection of results is presented in this paper. The much larger IceCube detector will extend the instrumented ice volume to a cubic kilometer and 9 out of 80 planned IceCube strings have been deployed to date. We present the status for both detectors. 0 SCOPUS: cp.p info:eu-repo/semantics/published
