[edit] solar vs. other neutrinos
i have heard the installation will discern between neutrinos of solar origin and those emanating from elsewhere. I'd like a section explaining how this will be done. Doceddi 17:38, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
- Neutrinos of solar origin are far too low in energy to be seen by IceCube. Solar neutrinos have energies below 20MeV, IceCube's energy threshold will be orders of magnitude above that.Flying fish 22:34, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
