  "body": "The IceCube Collaboration (http://icecube.wisc.edu/) reports:\n\nIceCube has performed a search [1] for additional track-like muon neutrino events arriving from the direction of IceCube-Cascade 230109A (https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/notices_amon_icecube_cascade/137527_43987982.amon)\nin a time range of 1000 seconds centered on the alert event time (2023-01-09 11:03:51.290 UTC to 2023-01-09 11:20:31.290 UTC) during which IceCube was collecting good quality data. Excluding the event that prompted the alert, zero track-like events are found within the 90% containment region of IceCube-Cascade 230109A.The IceCube sensitivity to neutrino point sources with an E^-2.5 spectrum (E^2 dN/dE at 1 TeV) within the locations spanned by the 90% spatial containment region of IceCube-Cascade 230109A ranges from 1.5e-01 to 1.6e-01 GeV cm^-2 in a 1000 second time window. 90% of events IceCube would detect from a source at this declination with an E^-2.5 spectrum have energies in the approximate energy range between 2e+02 GeV and 6e+04 GeV.\n\nA subsequent search was performed including 2 days of data centered on the alert event time (2023-01-08 11:12:11.290 UTC to 2023-01-10 11:12:11.290 UTC). In this case, we report a p-value of 1.00, consistent with no significant excess of track events. The IceCube sensitivity to neutrino point sources with an E^-2.5 spectrum (E^2 dN/dE at 1 TeV) within the locations spanned by the 90% spatial containment region of IceCube-Cascade 230109A ranges from 1.7e-01 to 1.9e-01 GeV cm^-2 in a 2 day time window.\n\nThe IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica.
