Description

The IceCube detector is the world's largest neutrino observatory, a 1 km$^{3}$ array of photomultipliers buried in the ice at the geographic South Pole. With the addition of the DeepCore in-fill, IceCube is sensitive to physics down the the ~10 GeV range. Current studies of neutrino oscillations and dark matter in DeepCore will be discussed. Also I will discuss the proposed in-fill extension, PINGU, with potential to probe low mass dark matter, further constrain neutrino oscillation parameters and determine the neutrino mass hierarchy.
