The event was selected by the ICECUBE_Astrotrack_Bronze alert stream. The average astrophysical neutrino purity for Bronze alerts is 30%. This alert has an estimated false alarm rate of 1.9213 events per year due to atmospheric backgrounds. The IceCube detector was in a normal operating state at the time of detection.\n\nAfter the initial automated alert (https://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/notices_amon_g_b/140312_53817657.amon), more sophisticated reconstruction algorithms have been applied offline, with the direction refined to:\n\nDate: 2025-01-01\nTime: 21:04:57.73 UT\nRA: 318.96 (+0.64, -0.63 deg 90% PSF containment) J2000\nDec: -0.93 (+0.49, -0.44 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.\n\nThere is one Fermi 4FGL-DR4 or 3FHL catalog source in the 90% uncertainty region: 4FGL J2115.9-0113 at RA: 319.00 deg, Dec: -1.23 deg J2000 (0.3 deg away from the best-fit event position).\n\nThe IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica.
