abstract = {The Neutrino Mass Ordering (NMO) remains one of the
outstanding questions in the field of neutrino physics. One
strategy to measure the NMO is to observe matter effects in
the oscillation pattern of atmospheric neutrinos above $\sim
1\,\mathrm {GeV}$, as proposed for several next-generation
neutrino experiments. Moreover, the existing IceCube
DeepCore detector can already explore this type of
measurement. We present the development and application of
two independent analyses to search for the signature of the
NMO with three years of DeepCore data. These analyses
include a full treatment of systematic uncertainties and a
statistically-rigorous method to determine the significance
for the NMO from a fit to the data. Both analyses show that
the dataset is fully compatible with both mass orderings.
For the more sensitive analysis, we observe a preference for
normal ordering with a p-value of $p_\mathrm {IO} = 15.3\\%$
and $\mathrm {CL}_\mathrm {s}=53.3\\%$ for the inverted
ordering hypothesis, while the experimental results from
both analyses are consistent within their uncertainties.
Since the result is independent of the value of $\delta
_\mathrm {CP}$ and obtained from energies $E_\nu \gtrsim
5\,\mathrm {GeV}$, it is complementary to recent results
from long-baseline experiments. These analyses set the
groundwork for the future of this measurement with more
capable detectors, such as the IceCube Upgrade and the
proposed PINGU detector.},
