TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 28910 SUBJECT: IceCube-201114A: Upper limits from a search for additional neutrino events in IceCube DATE: 20/11/16 17:25:42 GMT FROM: Alex Pizzuto at ICECUBE/U of Wisconsin The IceCube Collaboration (http://icecube.wisc.edu/) reports: IceCube has performed a search for additional track-like muon neutrino events arriving from the direction of IceCube-201114A (https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/gcn3/28887.gcn3) in a time range of 2 days centered on the alert event time (2020-11-13 15:05:31.96 UTC to 2020-11-15 15:05:31.96 UTC) during which IceCube was collecting good quality data. Excluding the event that prompted the alert, one additional track-like event is found in spatial coincidence with the 90% containment region of IceCube-201114A. We find that these data are consistent with atmospheric background expectations, with a p-value of 1.0. We accordingly derive a time-integrated muon-neutrino flux upper limit at the alert position of E^2 dN/dE = 3.2 x 10^-5 TeV cm^-2 at 90% CL, under the assumption of an E^-2 power law. 90% of events IceCube would detect from a source at this declination with an E^-2 spectrum are approximately between 1 TeV and 3 PeV. A subsequent search was performed to include the month of data prior to the alert event (2020-10-15 15:05:31.96 UTC to 2020-11-15 15:05:31.96 UTC). In this case, we report a p-value of 1.0, consistent with no significant excess of track-like events, and a corresponding time-integrated muon-neutrino flux upper limit assuming an E^-2 spectrum (E^2 dN/dE) of 4.4 x 10^-5 TeV cm^-2 at the 90% CL. The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica.
