[Okc-wp4] Last EO meeting before summer, tomorrow

[Chad Finley]

Hi all,

Reminder for tomorrow's EO meeting, last before the summer.  Lutz is the 
coordinator of supernova neutrino detection with IceCube, he is spending 
his sabbatical in Uppsala and we are stealing him down for a talk for 
the day.

best,
chad

Hi all,

next week we will have our last EO meeting before summer.
Lutz Köpke from University of Mainz will give a talk titled: "The next 
galactic supernova with the IceCube observatory”

Here the abstract:

Core collapse supernovae are expected to occur in our galaxy about twice 
per century.  As the inner region of the star cannot be studied with 
electromagnetic probes, neutrinos provide unique insights into the 
internal mechanisms in place during the core collapse.  With about 
500.000 recorded O(10 MeV) neutrino interactions for a supernova at the 
galactic center, IceCube offers unrivaled statistical precision and will 
remain competitive even when future neutrino detectors are realized. The 
basic detection principle and simulations that address selected particle 
and astrophysical aspects will be discussed. As the signal is observed 
on top of a large dark rate background, IceCube cannot resolve 
individual neutrino interactions at these low energies to determine 
energy, direction and the neutrino type. Investigations that help to 
remedy this situation and joint measurements of various neutrino and 
gravitational wave experiments will be mentioned.

cheers

/Francesco
