  "body": "The IceCube Collaboration (http://icecube.wisc.edu/) reports:\n\nIceCube has performed a search for additional track-like muon neutrino events arriving\nfrom the direction of IceCube-210629A (https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/gcn3/30342.gcn3) in a time\nrange of 2 days centered on the alert event time (2021-06-28 18:09:44.22 UTC to 2021-06-30 18:09:44.22 UTC) during which IceCube was collecting good quality data. Excluding the\nevent that prompted the alert, 0 additional track-like event is found in spatial coincidence\nwith the 90% containment region of IceCube-210629A. We accordingly derive a time-integrated muon-neutrino flux upper limit at the alert position of E^2 dN/dE = 3.9 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 1 PeV.\n\nA subsequent search was performed to include the month of data prior to the alert event (2021-05-30 18:09:44.22 UTC to 2021-06-30 18:09:44.22 UTC). In this case, we report a p-value of 0.09, 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\n6.2 x 10^-5 TeV cm^-2 at the 90% CL.\n\nThe IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica.
