Towards a search for optically hidden supernovae in 8 years of IceCube data — •Giulio Momente', Lutz Köpke, and Benjamin Eberhardt for the IceCube collaboration — ETAP, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität, Mainz

At the present date, IceCube offers the highest statistics to study the neutrino light curve of an exploding Supernova in our galaxy.

In this talk, recent improvements in the IceCube data taking and analysis software and on the integration with networks such as GCN (Gamma-ray Coordination Network) and SNEWS (Supernova Early Warning System) will be presented.

Furthermore, an overview on an ongoing search for optically hidden supernovae with neutrinos in IceCube will be presented.
