... larger sample of high quality track events are selected [6,7,1] which is several orders of magnitidue larger with thousands of events per year. However, a selection starting at 1 TeV becomes dominated by muon tracks from atmospheric neutrinos. A fit of the conventional atmo- spheric, prompt, and astrophysical flux for this selection of through going tracks using 8 years of IceCube data [1] can be seen in Fig 2. The resulting astrophysical fit was found to be ...
