The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is the world's largest high energy neutrino telescope, using the Antarctic ice cap as a Cherenkov detector medium. DeepCore, the low energy extension to IceCube, is an infill array with a fiducial volume of around 30 MTon in the deepest, clearest ice, aiming for an energy threshold as low as 10 GeV and extending IceCube's sensitivity to indirect dark matter...

New detection techniques for Ultra-Hight Energy (UHE) neutrinos are required for instrumenting a large detector volume needed to observe the expected low neutrino fluxes at energies of EeV or above. To measure these low fluxes, studies on a larger IceCube neutrino observatory at the south pole have been intensively investigated in the last decade. These studies have introduced a hybrid...
