Abstract
The design of the IceCube-Gen2 observatory, proposed as a next-generation extension of IceCube, includes a surface array consisting of scintillators and radio antennas. In addition to several such detectors already deployed at IceCube's surface array at the South Pole, a complete prototype station including three SKALA antennas has been operating at the Pierre Auger Observatory for several years. This setup has been used to successfully observe radio signals from air showers, demonstrated through coincident observations with the Auger Surface Detector. In this contribution, we present an updated analysis of these radio signals, and compare them to CoREAS simulations using the reconstruction from the Auger Surface Detector as input.
