Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 9473 SUBJECT: GRB 090529B: Fermi GBM detection DATE: 09/06/01 15:04:50 GMT FROM: Arne Rau at MPE Arne Rau (MPE) reports on behalf of the Fermi GBM Team: "At 07:26:22.41 UT on 29 May 2009, the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor triggered and located GRB 090529B (trigger 265274784 / 090529310). The on-ground calculated location, using the GBM trigger data, is RA = 231.2, DEC = +32.2 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to 15 h 25 m, 32 d 12 '), with an uncertainty of 7.2 degrees (radius, 1-sigma containment, statistical only; there is additionally a systematic error which is currently estimated to be 2 to 3 degrees). The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 36 degrees. The GBM light curve consists of a single peak with a duration (T90) of about 5.1 s (8-1000 keV). The time-averaged spectrum from T0-1.792 s to T0+5.376 s is best fit by a Band function with Epeak = 142 +/- 56 keV, alpha = -0.7 +/- 0.3, and beta = -2.0 +/- 0.3 (chi squared 561 for 544 d.o.f.). The event fluence (8-1000 keV) in this time interval is (3.4 +/- 0.9)E-07 erg/cm^2. The 1.28-sec peak photon flux measured starting from T0+0.003 s in the 8-1000 keV band is 4.1 +/- 0.1 ph/s/cm^2. The spectral analysis results presented above are preliminary; final results will be published in the GBM GRB Catalog."

Circular_text TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 9477 SUBJECT: GRB090529B: ROVOR Upper Limits DATE: 09/06/01 21:51:27 GMT FROM: J. Ward Moody at BYU Richard L. Pearson, Cameron J. Pace and J. Ward Moody report for Brigham Young Universitys ROVOR team: We searched for GRB 090529B at the position specified by the Fermi notice processed at 07:27:20UT on 29 May 2009 (Fermi-GBM Ground Position notice, trigger 265274784, record 57). The notice reports a GRB position of 15h 36m 29s +37d 02 22 (J2000) with an error of 9.86 degrees. ROVORs 0.41 m telescope, with a FOV = 10 arcminutes, centered the frames at 15h 36m 26.924s ( 0.0990 arcseconds) +37d 04 28.748 ( 0.1145 arcseconds, J2000). Rau (GCN Circ. 9473) reports a ground calculated location of 15h 25m +32d 12 with an uncertainty of 7.2 degrees. Our images are well within the degree of uncertainty reported by the Fermi trigger and within 1.9 degrees from the specified location in GCN Circ. 9473. ROVOR began retrieving data at 08:51:06.4UT (1.15 hrs post-burst). 25 x 60s frames were taken in the R band and 10 x 60s frames were taken in the V band. No optical afterglow was located after stacking the images and comparing them to the STScI Digital Sky Survey image of the same field. By using calibration stars from the nearby field of Mrk 501 (16h 53m 52.13s +39d 45 36.2, J2000), limiting magnitudes of V > 20.7 0.1mag and R > 21.4 0.1mag were found.
