Tredinnick, Ross; Cors, Rebecca; Madsen, James; Gagnon, David; Bravo-Gallart, Silvia; Sprecher, Bryce; Ponto, Kevin – Journal of STEM Outreach, 2020
Many concepts in astrophysics research can be difficult for a lay individual to understand or to comprehend their importance. One such example concept is the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, which detects high-energy neutrinos at the South Pole in Antarctica. The observatory uses information from detected neutrinos originating deep in outer space to…
