Francis Halzen: The success of AMANDA stood on two pillars: the Amundsen Scott Station and Bruce Koci.
Bruce Koci ( 2006)

Vostok Data
February 94: Amanda measures delay
March 94, Venice: G. Domogatsky points to Vostok results: it is scattering by remnant air bubbles !
April 94: tendency confirmed by Amanda data!

Detector works very stable
Lousy scattering length ~ 1m, but: absorption length ~ 200 m !

Supernova detection
Can detect Supernovae with non-tracking detector!
No tracking. But photons survivefor long time

Lesson:- Fast is good. Too fast is bad.- More careful optimization of drilling regime !

results in ~ 2.5° for upward moving muons
Use SPASE for pointing studies
