We searched for correlated neutrino events with visible energies greater than 250 keV within a time window of +/- 500 s centered around the GW detection time. A total of five candidates were found for all three GW events combined. This is consistent with the expected number of solar neutrino and background events. As a result, we have obtained the best current upper limits on all flavor neutrino (nu(e), nu(mu), nu(iota)) fluence associated with GW events, in the neutrino energy range 0.5-5.0 MeV. |
