Search for High-Energy Neutrinos From the Sun Using Ten Years of IceCube Data

Abstract: In this Letter, we present the results of a search for high-energy neutrinos produced by the annihilation of dark matter particles trapped in the Sun. Using 9.3 and 10.4 years of data from the DeepCore and IceCube neutrino detectors, we establish world-best limits for spin-dependent interactions between dark matter and Standard Model particles for dark matter masses from tens of GeV to tens of TeV. We additionally place constraints on the neutrino background produced by interactions of cosmic rays with the solar atmosphere.
