LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA S230520ae: Upper limits from IceCube neutrino search

Searches for track-like muon neutrino events detected by IceCube consistent with the sky localization of gravitational-wave candidate S230520ae in a time range of 1000 seconds centered on the alert event time (2023-05-20 22:40:22.000 UTC to 2023-05-20 22:57:02.000 UTC) have been performed [1,2]. During this time period IceCube was collecting good quality data. No significant track-like events are found in spatial coincidence of S230520ae calculated from the map circulated in the 2-Preliminary notice. IceCube's sensitivity assuming an E^-2 spectrum (E^2 dN/dE) to neutrino point sources within the locations spanned by the 90% spatial containment of S230520ae ranges from 0.028 to 1.133 GeV cm^-2 in a 1000 second time window. The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica.
