The IceCube Surface Array Enhancement and cosmic-ray observation with radio — •Megha Venugopal for the IceCube collaboration — Institute of Astroparticle Physics (IAP), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a unique 3-dimensional detector at the South Pole with its surface cosmic-ray detector, IceTop and its in-ice volume neutrino detector. Primarily motivated by the rising snow accumulation on the surface component, a new configuration of detectors was planned to be set up along the existing 81 pairs of ice-filled Cherenkov tanks of IceTop. The upgrade termed as the Surface Array Enhancement (SAE) is set to consist of up to 30 stations with elevated 8 scintillators and 3 antennas per station. The current status of the SAE radio measurements with the 3 antennas of the single station at the South Pole is discussed. The updates for upcoming stations are also presented.
