The IceCube community is hosting a second Polar Science Workshop 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.

Topics in foc us

Rapid Access Drilling ( RAID) at the South Pole and the possibility of a long term open hole

SPICEcore physical properties (in particular grain size, elongation, orientation and fabric), expected hole lifet ime and borehole logging

Modeling of o ptical and radio propagation in birefringent polycrystals with crystal pref erred orientation (CPO and COF)

Glacio logy instrumentation in the IceCube Upgrade and IceCube Gen2

Data interests (both in terms of IceCube data (tempe ratures, images, ice analyses, ...) for glaciology, as well as glaciologica l data being interesting to the IceCube detector modelling)

Drilling technology and logistics

Bedrock morphology and characteristics

Englacial heterogeneities and structures, la yering architecture
