Abstract

The IceCube detector, which completed construction in December 2010, is the first km3 scale instrument to become operational with the primary mission of observing high energy neutrinos from astrophysical sources to elucidate our understanding of the source of cosmic rays and the astrophysical mechanisms that produce them. Here we report on results from the partially completed detector on searches for diffuse astrophysical neutrinos, astrophysical point sources of neutrinos and neutrino emission coincident with gamma ray bursts. We also present results on the observation of neutrino oscillations and discuss the potential program for neutrino oscillation studies.
