Abstract

Since its completion in 2011, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory has opened a new window on the extreme Universe. Building on its success in multi-messenger astronomy and particle physics, the collaboration is now pursuing a major extension: the IceCube-Gen2 facility. IceCube-Gen2 will be a unique wide-band neutrino observatory (MeV–EeV) that employs two complementary detection technologies for neutrinos, optical and radio, in combination with a surface detector array for CR air showers to exploit a large range of scientific opportunities. This contribution provides an introduction to the project as well as a status report.
