Event Reconstruction in IceCube

Data collected by the IceCube Neutrio Observatory's 5,160 optical sensors can be used to infer information about neutrinos only after the completion of a process called reconstruction. My group is working to make this faster and more streamlined, thereby improving physics analyses of the IceCube collaboration. I implemented more realistic and detailed models of the processes which result from neutrino interactions which can be used to more accurately generate the hypotheses used in reconstruction.
