Time-dependent searches for point sources of neutrinos with the 40-string and 22-string configurations of icecube

This paper presents four searches for flaring sources of neutrinos using the IceCube neutrino telescope. For the first time, a search is performed over the entire parameter space of energy, direction, and time with sensitivity to neutrino flares lasting between 20 μs and a year duration from astroph...
