The IceCube neutrino observatory, currently under construction at the South Pole, offers a novel environment to search for energetic (> TeV) neutrinos from extra-galactic sources as well as signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model. With IceCube nearly complete, where 79 out of 86 strings are deployed, it is currently the largest neutrino observatory.
The large, roughly cubic kilometer, instrumented volume and clear glacial ice allows for the detection of energetic secondaries from high energy neutrino reactions.
In this talk I will present the current construction status of the IceCube neutrino observatory, results from searches for extra-galactic neutrino sources, as well as the ongoing effort and future prospects of detecting physics beyond the Standard Model.
