Recent Results from the RICE Experiment at the South Pole

Abstract

We present a compilation of recent results, submitted to the 2003 International Cosmic Ray Conference (Tsukuba, Japan). These include: a) Revised Monte Carlo estimates of the radiofrequency signals produced by electromagnetic showers in ice, b) an updated search for ultra-high energy (UHE) neutrinos based on detection of radio-wavelength Cherenkov radiation; such radiation results from neutrino-induced electromagnetic showers in cold Polar ice, and c) An in situ measurement of the index of refraction through the South Polar firn.
