Understand

Data from the IceCube detector in its 22-string configuration (IC22) were used to directly measure the atmospheric muon energy spectrum near the horizon.

After passage through more than 10 km of ice, muon bundles from air showers are reduced to single muons, whose energy can be estimated from the total number of photons registered in the detector.
The energy distribution obtained in this way is sensitive to the cosmic ray composition around the knee and is complementary to measurements by air shower arrays.
The method described extends the physics potential of neutrino telescopes and can easily be applied in similar detectors.
