Super-Kamiokande (1996-2000: 1454 bursts) AMANDA-II (2000-2003: Sensitivity) (2000-2003: 139 bursts) Preliminary! • Kyler: compare to just one model... WB = yardstick • compare with Super-K using their Greens-fct.approach • Michael: use info from individual bursts (+ model)
GRB paper ... Agree on outline for papers: cascade GRBs (Ignacio) - combine with Brennan‘s analysis? -induced GRBs (Kyler, Michael) - incorporate what? - combine how? - 2 separate papers? • New ideas (e.g. astro-ph70502521) • TeV-neutrinos from mildly relativistic SN-jets? (3-25%) • Abundant GRB‘s with photon jet not breaking out of stellar environment?

Sieglinde Code will be maintained (David, Damian, etc) .... but further functionality has to come from users .... AMANDA PHD students in analysis phase: please use it! Beginning students: try use IceTray and help beafen it up
Simulation/Photonics • AMASIM, MMC, Photonics • UCB: Kurt, Dave Hardtke, Dima, Rodin • UW: Paolo • Stockholm: Stephan,Thomas, Peter St., Christin • Bartol: Peter Niessen • UM: John Pretz, Ty deYoung • Brussels: Daan • Uppsala: Adam, Johan • Wuppertal: Christopher • DESY Rafael Photonics workshop this meeting ...
progress!!! Cogz structures in photonics! bulk ice fine! ...but #event wrong (bug) .. Problem in layered ice with short tracks ... Reprogram ..
Simulation/Photonics • Reconstruction • Mons (layered ice): Mathieu • Kansas (layered ice): George • Mons (UHE): Thierry • Stockholm (cascade ..) Thomas, Peter • Wuppertal (general): Christopher (PDF-working group), Simon + several IceCube developments AMANDA-IR20050301 Hope for improvements resolution (particularily at high E) misreconstruction of events at 10-6 level
Other central activities • Online quality monitoring: • Mainz (Jens, Rebecca?) • T0/ADC determination: • DESY (Elisa, Michael Walter) • PSU (Carsten Rott and others) • Online data processing: • DESY • Supernova system: • Mainz (Tom,Marc, T.Kowarik) • MC Processing: • 2000, 2001: Paolo • 2000-2004: Michael Walter • VLF & SuperDarn: • Stockholm • UW • Arvid Pohl • Flary runs: • - Arvid Pohl • - Dawn Williams Offline processing & cleaning: 2001: UW 2002: Mainz 2000-2004: DESY
Priorities • Simulation/Photonics/Reconstruction • simulation still need help (TWR!) • finalize Photonics - make test plan • „ultimate reconstruction methods“ • use Sieglinde ...and IceTray (for A II+new strings) • Improve on systematics • multi-year analyses ! • diffuse (muon, cascade), WIMPS
Ultimate „squeezing“ of AMANDA define strategy for: sensitivity increase: • point source 1997-2006 factor 2 - 2 • define blind analysis criteria for flare analyses • combined -cascades 00-06 diffuse limit up to 10 (?) • EHE analysis (incl. TWR) up to 6? (TWR?) • ... GRB search with Swift When switch to 30+ string detector? • ..keep standard muon DAQ running in 2006
...other things to remember.. ICRC papers: to be submitted by the end of this month (please submit on your own, once agreed upon ....) • ... by the way:.. what is status of reconstruction of: • TWR 2003/2004 • muon-DAQ 2004/2005 (online) • - muon t0s • - cross talk cleaning?
