A new approach for the reconstruction of low-energy air showers at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is an experiment located at the geographic South Pole. It is composed of two detectors: an array of ice-Cherenkov tanks at the surface called IceTop and an optical array deep in the ice. The combination of the two detectors can be exploited for the study of cosmic rays. This work will primarily focus on the IceTop response, mainly dominated by the electromagnetic component of cosmic-ray air showers, with the goal of developing a new reconstruction technique for low energy air-showers. Some preliminary plots of the reconstructed quantities will be shown, like the energy proxy, zenith and azimuth angle or core position.
