The average astrophysical neutrino purity for Bronze alerts is 30%. This alert has an estimated false alarm rate of 1.677 events per year due to atmospheric backgrounds.\nThe IceCube detector was in a normal operating state at the time of detection. After the initial automated alert (https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/notices_amon_g_b/138193_21103478.amon), more sophisticated reconstruction algorithms have have been applied offline, with the direction refined to:\n\nDate: 23-07-25\nTime: 21:30:51.06  UT\nRA: 327.04 (+2.27 / -2.03  90% PSF containment) J2000\nDec: +12.33 (+1.80 / -1.36 deg 90% PSF containment) J2000\n\nWe encourage follow-up by ground and space-based instruments to help identify a possible astrophysical source for the candidate neutrino. One Fermi 4FGL-DR3 or 3FHL catalog source is located in the 90% uncertainty region. The source is 4FGL J2150.8+1118, located at RA 327.70, Dec 11.31, 1.21 deg away from the best-fit alert event position.\n\nThe IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica. The IceCube realtime alert point of contact can be reached at roc@icecube.wisc.edu .\n\n\n",
