An Updated Source List for IceCube Neutrino Cluster Alerts

Since 2016, the Gamma-ray Follow-Up (GFU) program has distributed cluster alerts privately to partner Cherenkov telescopes, using pre-selected source lists to improve sensitivity over unbiased all-sky scans. A systematic update of these monitored sources is now underway, motivated by the upcoming public release of GFU-cluster alerts and by recent insights into candidate neutrino emitters—including active galaxies as well as the Galactic Plane.
