The National Science Foundation Division of Physics awarded the University of Alabama $160,000 on September 1, 2026, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) for analysis of data from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory through August 31, 2027. The funding supports scientists at the University of Alabama to analyze IceCube data, leveraging the facility's detection of high-energy neutrinos of astrophysical origin and contributing to multimessenger astrophysics. IceCube, the world's largest operating neutrino detector, consists of sensors embedded in Antarctic ice near the geographic South Pole and has detected a flux of high-energy neutrinos with an energy spectrum extending beyond 10 PeV since construction completion in 2011. The observatory has enabled coordinated observations with gamma-ray satellite observatories and ground-based optical telescopes, as well as monitoring of galactic supernovae and measurement of neutrino properties across ten orders of magnitude in energy. Work is performed in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. This is a project grant, a single-year award obligating the full $160,000.
