Abstract

The IceCube neutrino observatory is capable of detecting Extremely High Energy (EHE) neutrinos with energies beyond 108 GeV originated in the highest energy cosmic rays. The high energy muon bundles associated with cosmic ray air showers constitute a major background and a reliable rejection mechanism must be developed. A possible approach is to identify events induced by neutrinos inside the detector instrumentation volume. The initial simulation study is briefly reported.
