Description
Understanding the properties of the astrophysical neutrino flux measured by IceCube relies upon the ability to reconstruct the energies of the muon events observed in the detector. In this talk, I will describe a maximum likelihood method that interprets the full pattern of reconstructed energy losses from each muon track to obtain a best estimate of the muon energy as the event entered the detector.
