Scientific paper

Although designed to detect neutrinos with energies of 100 GeV and above, the AMANDA neutrino telescope is also capable of detecting multi-MeV antielectron neutrinos from supernovae. Emb edded in the deep, cold and sterile ice of the South Polar glacier, photomultiplier noise is of the order of only a few hundred Hz. The signature of supernova neutrinos is the simultaneous increase in rate in all optical sensors in the detector. We outline improvements in the reduction of correlated noise and describe a fast and robust filter that has been developed to allow participation in SNEWS.
