SUMMARY:Searches for transient astrophysical neutrino sources with Ice
 Cube\, Preliminary Exam\, Jessie Thwaites\, Physics Graduate Student
DESCRIPTION:Multi-messenger astrophysics is a powerful tool for unders
 tanding the most energetic sources in the universe. Although IceCube h
 as discovered a flux of extragalactic neutrinos\, the sources of the v
 ast majority of those neutrinos remain a mystery. We describe searches
  for neutrino emission from transient astrophysical source classes\, b
 oth in archival searches and real-time analyses. In archival data\, we
  use IceCube-DeepCore to search for GeV neutrinos from novae\, and set
  the first upper limits on neutrinos from novae. We describe a planned
  search for neutrinos from fast radio bursts (FRBs) using the first ca
 talog published by the CHIME/FRB Collaboration\, which provides more t
 han an order of magnitude more sources than previous IceCube FRB searc
 hes. We also describe real-time follow-up searches for neutrinos from 
 astrophysical transients\, including for the brightest gamma-ray burst
  ever recorded\, GRB 221009A\, for which we report a non-detection and
  set strong constraints on neutrino emission. We also describe planned
  follow-ups of gravitational wave events during LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA opera
 ting run 4\, which is anticipated to start providing alerts as early a
 s mid-February 2023.
