TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 32270 SUBJECT: IceCube-220624A: No Candidate Counterparts from the Zwicky Transient Facility DATE: 22/06/25 17:08:15 GMT FROM: Simeon Reusch at DESY Simeon Reusch, Jannis Necker (DESY), Robert Stein (Caltech), Sven Weimann (Ruhr University Bochum) and Anna Franckowiak (DESY/Ruhr University Bochum) report: On behalf of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) and Global Relay of Observatories Watching Transients Happen (GROWTH) collaborations: We observed the localization region of the neutrino event IceCube-220624A (Santander et. al, GCN 32260) with the Palomar 48-inch telescope, equipped with the 47 square degree ZTF camera (Bellm et al. 2019, Graham et al. 2019). We started observations in the g- and r-band beginning at 2022-06-25 05:15 UTC, approximately 13.0 hours after event time. We covered 83.2% (8.1 sq deg) of the reported localization region. This estimate accounts for chip gaps. Both exposures were 30s long, with a typical depth of 20.5 mag. The images were processed in real-time through the ZTF reduction and image subtraction pipelines at IPAC to search for potential counterparts (Masci et al. 2019). AMPEL (Nordin et al. 2019, Stein et al. 2021) was used to search the alerts database for candidates. We reject stellar sources (Tachibana and Miller 2018) and moving objects, and apply machine learning algorithms (Mahabal et al. 2019). No candidate counterparts were detected. We will continue monitoring the localization region with ZTF in the g-band for the next days. ZTF and GROWTH are worldwide collaborations comprising Caltech, USA; IPAC, USA; WIS, Israel; OKC, Sweden; JSI/UMd, USA; DESY, Germany; TANGO, Taiwan; UW Milwaukee, USA; LANL, USA; TCD, Ireland; IN2P3, France. GROWTH acknowledges generous support of the NSF under PIRE Grant No 1545949. Alert distribution service provided by DIRAC@UW (Patterson et al. 2019). Alert database searches are done by AMPEL (Nordin et al. 2019). Alert filtering is performed with the AMPEL Follow-up Pipeline (Stein et al. 2021).
