Speaker: Kyler Kuehn
Center for Cosmology and AstroParticle Physics
The Ohio State University

 Since 1997, the Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detector Array (AMANDA) has been searching the heavens for high energy neutrinos produced by various astrophysical sources.  Because of the unique properties of neutrinos, they can provide information that is inaccessible with the techniques of "traditional" photon astronomy.  I will describe the method for detecting this elusive particle, and highlight results from the last
decade of observations with AMANDA.  I will also give the current status of the upgrade to the AMANDA detector, named IceCube, which will ultimately be more than 10 times more sensitive to any neutrino signal.
