Abstract: (AIP)
We report on the combined analysis of over 400 GRB time periods that occurred during seven years of AMANDA observations. AMANDA has seen no neutrinos correlated with these bursts, thus we report a neutrino flux limit that is the most stringent observational limit to date. In light of the new observational opportunities afforded by Swift, we also discuss the future potential for GRB neutrino detection with AMANDA’S successor, IceCube. Finally, we briefly discuss the expansion of AMANDA’S transient point‐source search to other phenomena, such as jet‐driven supernovae and gamma‐ray dark bursts.
