Pradier (IPHC/Universite de Strasbourg) report on behalf of the ANTARES Collaboration: \n\nUsing on-line data from the ANTARES detector, we have performed a follow-up analysis of the \nrecently reported LIGO/Virgo S190910d event using the 90% contour of the bayestar probability \nmap provided by the GW interferometers (GCN#25695 <https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/gcn3/25695.gcn3>). The ANTARES visibility at the time of the \nalert, together with the 50% and 90% contours of the probability map are shown at http://antares.in2p3.fr/GW/S190910d_Initial.png <http://antares.in2p3.fr/GW/S190910d_Initial.png>. \nConsidering the location probability provided by the LIGO/Virgo collaborations, there is a \n50.9% chance that the GW emitter was in the ANTARES **upgoing** field of view at the time of \nthe alert. \n\nNo up-going muon neutrino candidate events were recorded in the ANTARES sky during a \n+/-500s time-window centered on the time 2019-09-10 01:26:19 and in the 90% contour of the S190910d \nevent. The expected number of atmospheric background events in the region visible by ANTARES is \n9.24e-04 in the +/- 500s time window. An extended search during +/- 1 hour gives no \nup-going muon neutrino coincidence. The expected number of atmospheric background events in the \nregion visible by ANTARES is 6.65e-03 in this larger time window. \n\nANTARES is the largest undersea neutrino detector, installed in the Mediterranean Sea, and it is \nprimarily sensitive to neutrinos in the TeV-PeV energy range. At 10 TeV, the median angular \nresolution for muon neutrinos is about 0.5 degrees. In the range 1-100 TeV ANTARES has a \ncompetitive sensitivity to this position in the sky.",
