SUMMARY:2nd IceCube Polar Science Workshop
LOCATION:online
DESCRIPTION:<p style="text-align: justify;">The IceCube community is hosting a <strong>
 second Polar Science Workshop</strong> that will be held online. The main p
 urposes of this workshop are to solicit a scan on research ideas regarding 
 the planned upgrade of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory at South Pole, and 
 to continue to promote exchange between the two fields of glaciology and ne
 utrino astronomy. In particular, the organizers hope seek input and proposa
 ls from the glaciology community on experiments and instrumentation complem
 entary to the planned array of drilled boreholes as part of the IceCube neu
 trino array.&nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Topics in foc
 us</strong></p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">Rapid Access Drilling (
 RAID) at the South Pole and the possibility of a long term open hole</li><l
 i style="text-align: justify;">SPICEcore physical properties (in particular
  grain size, elongation, orientation and &nbsp;fabric), expected hole lifet
 ime and borehole logging</li><li style="text-align: justify;">Modeling of o
 ptical and radio propagation in birefringent polycrystals with crystal pref
 erred orientation (CPO and COF)</li><li style="text-align: justify;">Glacio
 logy instrumentation in the IceCube Upgrade and IceCube Gen2</li><li style=
 "text-align: justify;">Data interests (both in terms of IceCube data (tempe
 ratures, images, ice analyses, ...) for glaciology, as well as glaciologica
 l data being&nbsp;&nbsp; interesting to the IceCube detector modelling)</li
 ><li style="text-align: justify;">Drilling technology and logistics</li><li
  style="text-align: justify;">Bedrock morphology and characteristics</li><l
 i style="text-align: justify;">Englacial heterogeneities and structures, la
 yering architecture</li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p><p s
