Abstract

The PI proposes to: 1. Analyze AMANDA II data and a program, Eview, for muon propagation in ice. 2. Develop and test a fused silica module. 3. Develop a fluorescence data logger to be lowered at the time of drilling a hole in ice. This device is to provide a way to characterize the optical property of ice as a function of depth. Funding for the duration of three years is recommendation. Funding level for years two and three will depend on IceCube funding.
