Research group IceCube - IceCube is a detector for high-energy neutrinos

Deep in the glacier ice at the South Pole lies IceCube, one of the world's most advanced observatories for studying neutrinos that reach us from outer space. Now, a comprehensive upgrade has taken place in which Swedish scientists have played a significant role. The upgrade is expected to lead to new discoveries in neutrino astronomy and particle physics.

For the first time, researchers have produced an image of the Milky Way using neutrinos, which were observed with the IceCube telescope in the Antarctic ice. The neutrino image suggests that cosmic ray interactions are more intense in the center of our galaxy than once thought. The results are published in the journal Science.

For the first time, an international team of scientists has found evidence of high-energy neutrino emission from a nearby galaxy. The galaxy, NGC 1068 (also known as Messier 77) is an active galaxy in the constellation Cetus and one of the most familiar and well-studied active galaxies. The results are published in Science.
