00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc Barrio Uña, Juan Abel author Bonnefoy, Simon Francois Albert author Contreras González, José Luis author Domínguez, A. author Fidalgo, D. author Fonseca González, María Victoria author López, M. author Nievas Rosillo, Mireia author 2016-11 We describe and report the status of a neutrino-triggered program in IceCube that generates real-time alerts for gamma-ray follow-up observations by atmospheric-Cherenkov telescopes (MAGIC and VERITAS). While IceCube is capable of monitoring the whole sky continuously, high-energy gamma-ray telescopes have restricted fields of view and in general are unlikely to be observing a potential neutrino-flaring source at the time such neutrinos are recorded. The use of neutrino-triggered alerts thus aims at increasing the availability of simultaneous multi-messenger data during potential neutrino flaring activity, which can increase the discovery potential and constrain the phenomenological interpretation of the high-energy emission of selected source classes (e. g. blazars). The requirements of a fast and stable online analysis of potential neutrino signals and its operation are presented, along with first results of the program operating between 14 March 2012 and 31 December 2015. 1748-0221 10.1088/1748-0221/11/11/P11009 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/17915 http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1748-0221/11/11/P11009 http://iopscience.iop.org Very high-energy gamma-ray follow-up program using neutrino triggers from IceCube
