In the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, a signal of astrophysical neutrinos is
obscured by backgrounds from atmospheric neutrinos and muons produced in
cosmic-ray interactions. IceCube event selections used to isolate the
astrophysical neutrino signal often focus on t/he morphology of the light
patterns recorded by the detector. The analyses presented here use the new
IceCube Enhanced Starting Track Event Selection (ESTES), which identifies
events likely generated by muon neutrino interactions within the detector
geometry, focusing on neutrino energies of 1-500 TeV with a median angular
resolution of 1.4{\deg}. Selecting for starting track events filters out not
only the atmospheric-muon background, but also the atmospheric-neutrino
background in the southern sky. This improves IceCube's muon neutrino
sensitivity to southern-sky neutrino sources, especially for Galactic sources
that are not expected to produce a substantial flux of neutrinos above 100 TeV.
In this work, the ESTES sample was applied for the first time to searches for
astrophysical sources of neutrinos, including a search for diffuse neutrino
emission from the Galactic plane. No significant excesses were identified from
any of the analyses; however, constraining limits are set on the hadronic
emission from TeV gamma-ray Galactic plane objects and models of the diffuse
Galactic plane neutrino flux.
